Resource Geologist

KINGKING MINING CORPORATION (KMC) IS HIRING for Resource Geologist

Role:

The Resource Geologist will be responsible for the evaluation, estimation, and ongoing maintenance of mineral resources, with a strong focus on porphyry and epithermal style. The role requires a mature, hands-on geologist with practical experience working in active mining operations, capable of bridging geological interpretation with operational realities.

Key Functions:

Resource Modeling & Estimation

· Develop, update, and maintain geological and resource models in accordance with JORC / NI 43-101 / CIM/ PMRC or other relevant reporting codes.

· Interpret complex geological datasets for porphyry and epithermal mineral systems, including lithology, alteration, structure, and mineralization controls.

· Perform grade estimation using appropriate geostatistical methods and ensure defensible assumptions.

· Prepare and support resource statements, technical reports, and internal reviews.

Operational Integration

· Work closely with mine geology, planning, and mining operations to ensure resource models are practical, realistic, and aligned with mining constraints.

· Provide geological input into short- and long-term mine planning.

· Support reconciliation between resource models, grade control, and production data.

· Participate in site visits, mapping, and drilling programs as required.

Drilling & Data Management

· Design and review resource extension and infill drilling programs.

· Ensure QA/QC protocols are implemented and monitored.

· Validate and manage geological databases, including drillhole, assay, and geological data.

Technical Leadership & Mentoring

· Provide technical guidance and mentoring to junior and mid-level geologists.

· Review geological interpretations and resource work completed by others.

· Contribute to continuous improvement of geological and resource workflows.

Stakeholder & Compliance

· Support audits, due diligence reviews, and external consultant engagements.

· Communicate resource risks, uncertainties, and opportunities clearly to management.

· Ensure compliance with company standards, reporting codes, and safety requirements.

Qualification:

Education

· Bachelor’s degree in Geology and With valid PRC license in Geology.

· Postgraduate qualification (MSc or PhD) in Economic Geology or related field is advantage

· Minimum of 10 years of relevant geological experience, including significant time in resource geology.

· Demonstrated experience with porphyry and epithermal

· Practical, hands-on experience in operating mines, either open pit and/or underground

· Proven track record of delivering mineral resource estimates for producing or advanced-stage projects.

· Strong proficiency in industry-standard software (e.g. Leapfrog, Datamine, Surpac, Vulcan, Micromine, or equivalent).

· Solid understanding of geostatistics, resource classification, and uncertainty analysis.

· Experience with grade reconciliation and mine-to-model comparisons.

· Strong geological interpretation skills in structurally complex systems.

· Strong technical report writing skills

· Sound technical judgment developed through operational exposure.

· Ability to work independently with minimal supervision.

· Comfortable making defensible decisions under operational and time constraints.

· Strong communication skills, with the ability to explain complex geological concepts to non-geologists.

· Collaborative mindset with respect for operational, planning, and mining teams.
