• Frequent bending, stooping, kneeling, and repetitive motions.
• Ability to stand or walk for extended periods on uneven ground.
• May involve climbing ladders or stairs and unloading RC samples from drill rigs.
• Required use of PPE, including respirators for specific activities.
• Work performed at an active rural mine site in Eureka, Nevada.
• Logging may take place in a core shack, warehouse, or outdoor areas depending on conditions.
• Exposure to noise, dust, heavy equipment, and weather extremes including heat, cold, wind, and dust.
• Work schedule consists of 10-hour shifts, potentially including nights, weekends, holidays, and coverage for employee absences.
