Senior Metallurgist
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Thus we need to decide which sections to include: About the role (maybe "About Jerritt Canyon" is company description, but they said use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. The posting includes "About Jerritt Canyon" (company background) and "The Opportunity" (role description). There's also "Responsibilities" (explicit heading). Then "Education And Experience" (qualifications). There's no explicit "Skills" but could be derived from responsibilities? But we should not invent sections. We can include sections: About the role (maybe combine company description and role overview?), Responsibilities, Qualifications (Education And Experience). Possibly Skills? Not explicit. Benefits, Pay, Schedule not present, so omit. We must not include EEO boilerplate. Remove duplicated lines. The posting includes "The above duties and responsibilities represent the nature and level of work assigned and are not necessarily all-inclusive." That's part of responsibilities? It's a note; we can keep as part of responsibilities paragraph. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include company description (About Jerritt Canyon) and role overview (The Opportunity). Could combine under "About the role" heading? The instruction says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have About the role
containing the company description and role overview. Then Responsibilities
with list of duties. Then Qualifications
with education and experience bullet list.
We must not repeat the job title as a heading. The job title is Senior Metallurgist; we are not using that as heading.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
Thus for Responsibilities, we need to convert each bullet (starting with "Provide senior-level metallurgical expertise...") into
- . There are many bullet points. We'll list them.
For Qualifications, we have "Education And Experience" with bullet points (starting with "Bachelor's degree..."). We'll convert each to
- .
We need to ensure we don't include filler like "The above duties and responsibilities represent the nature and level of work assigned and are not necessarily all-inclusive." That's prose, not a list; we can put it in a
after the list.
Also we need to include company description and role overview as prose under About the role.
Let's extract the relevant text.
About Jerritt Canyon:
"About Jerritt Canyon The Jerritt Canyon deposit was discovered in 1972, and the first gold production from the property occurred in 1981. The Jerritt Canyon property contains 30,821 hectares of mining claims located in the mining-friendly state of Nevada. First Majestic acquired the Jerritt Canyon Gold Mine from Sprott Mining Inc. on April 30, 2021. In May 2023, operations were suspended to prioritize exploration and technical studies. Jerritt Canyon is now entering a new phase of evaluation and planning, requiring substantial technical support to advance the work necessary for a potential future restart of operations."
The Opportunity:
"The Opportunity The Senior Metallurgist is responsible for providing technical leadership and metallurgical expertise to support the safe, efficient, and profitable operation of a mining and mineral processing operation. The role will lead metallurgical investigations, process optimization, plant performance improvement, and technical studies across the mine-to-processing value chain. Working closely with Mining, Processing, Geology, Engineering, Maintenance, and Technical Services teams, the Senior Metallurgist will identify opportunities to improve metal recovery, throughput, product quality, operating costs, and overall plant performance."
We can combine these two paragraphs under About the role.
Now Responsibilities list:
- Provide senior-level metallurgical expertise and technical support to mining and mineral processing operations.
- Monitor and evaluate plant metallurgical performance, including recovery, throughput, grade, concentrate/product quality, and process efficiency.
- Develop and implement metallurgical test programs, plant trials, and process improvement initiatives.
- Identify and investigate opportunities to improve metal recovery, throughput, process stability, and operating costs.
- Lead metallurgical accounting, mass balancing, reconciliation, and performance reporting.
- Analyze metallurgical and operational data to identify trends, process constraints, and improvement opportunities.
- Develop and maintain metallurgical models, simulations, and process performance forecasts where appropriate.
- Support commissioning, optimization, debottlenecking, and expansion projects.
- Provide technical input into feasibility studies, scoping studies, capital projects, and mine/process development plans.
- Design and oversee laboratory, pilot-scale, and plant-scale metallurgical test work.
- Interpret mineralogical, metallurgical, and process data and translate findings into practical operational recommendations.
- Work with Geology and Mine Planning teams to understand ore characteristics, variability, and their impact on processing performance.
- Support ore characterization, geometallurgical programs, blending strategies, and stockpile management.
- Develop and maintain metallurgical procedures, standards, operating strategies, and technical documentation.
- Provide technical coaching and mentoring to Metallurgists, Process Engineers, and junior technical personnel.
- Prepare technical reports, presentations, operating reviews, and recommendations for management.
- Work collaboratively with operations teams to implement and sustain process improvements.
- Ensure metallurgical activities comply with applicable health, safety, environmental, regulatory, and company requirements.
- Promote a strong culture of safety, operational excellence, continuous improvement, and technical rigor.
Then after list, we have note: "The above duties and responsibilities represent the nature and level of work assigned and are not necessarily all-inclusive." We'll put as
.
Now Qualifications (Education And Experience):
- Bachelor's degree in Metallurgical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Mineral Processing, Materials Engineering, or a closely related discipline.
- 7–10+ years of relevant metallurgical or mineral processing experience, preferably within a mining or mineral processing environment.
- Demonstrated experience working in an operating mine, concentrator, processing plant, refinery, smelter, or other mineral processing facility.
- Strong understanding of mineral processing principles and metallurgical unit operations.
- Experience with metallurgical test work, process optimization, mass balancing, metallurgical accounting, and plant performance analysis.
- Demonstrated ability to troubleshoot complex metallurgical and process problems and develop practical solutions.
- Experience leading plant trials, optimization programs, and continuous improvement initiatives.
- Strong analytical and statistical skills, with the ability to interpret large datasets and convert technical findings into actionable recommendations.
- Experience working cross-functionally with Operations, Geology, Mining, Engineering, Maintenance, and Technical Services teams.
- Strong technical writing, communication, presentation, and project management skills.
- Ability to work effectively in a mine-site or remote operating environment.
We should not include EEO section.
