Economic Geologist

Piper Maddox

Exploration Geologist | Remote + Field Work | Full-time, Direct-Hire | Mining We're partnering with a growing exploration company to find a Mid-to-Senior Exploration Geologist to join their team. This is a fantastic opportunity for a field-focused geologist who wants to play a key role in advancing mineral exploration projects across the Western US.

This is a remote-based position with significant field rotations focused primarily in Nevada, with potential work extending into surrounding states (OR, ID, UT, AZ, and occasionally NM/CO/CA). Field rotations follow a 10-on/4-off or 15-on/7-off schedule, with quarterly travel to the company's Colorado office.

Conduct field exploration activities including geological mapping, outcrop and rock chip sampling, soil geochemistry, and structural analysis to identify and characterize mineralized targets
Manage and interpret drill programs, including core/RC logging, sample QA/QC, and integration of assay results into geological models
Support regulatory, permitting, and technical reporting requirements while maintaining accurate field documentation

Strong field exploration skill set with a genuine passion for boots-on-the-ground work

  • Comfort with extended field rotations and remote work environments
  • Experience across various deposit styles and exploration techniques is a plus

Annual cash bonus: 20-35% of base salary, tied to individual and company performance
  • One-time stock option grant upon starting
  • Company vehicle provided for work use (truck based in Reno), with mileage/travel expenses covered

If you're an experienced exploration geologist looking for a hands-on role with real ownership over target generation and field programs, we'd love to hear from you.
