The Mine Development Planner (MDP) acts as the primary link between long-term strategic planning and physical site execution. The role is responsible for leading the \"pioneering\" planning phase, which involves overseeing the critical transition of raw terrain into a functional, large-scale open-pit mining operation.

• Pioneering & Infrastructure: Oversee early-stage site preparation, including clearing, grubbing, topsoil management, and the strategic sequencing of haul roads, drainage systems, and waste rock dumps.
• Strategic Alignment: Develop 0-2 year schedules to ensure immediate \"boots-on-the-ground\" work aligns with Life of Mine (LOM) goals and does not interfere with future pit expansions.
• Water & Risk Management: Design essential diversion systems and drainage for year-round stability and ensure all initial ramps and catch benches meet strict geotechnical safety requirements.
• Regulatory Compliance: Ensure all early development and earthworks comply with environmental permits and safety standards, such as MSHA or OSHA.
• Contractor Oversight: Manage specialized earthmoving contractors who are typically utilized during the early stages of mine development.
• Operational Liaison: Serve as a \"translator\" between the mine planning office and the field operations team to navigate unexpected geological or hydrological conditions.

• Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Mining Engineering, Civil Engineering, or a related field.
• Experience: 5-8+ years of experience in large-scale open-pit mining.
• Technical Proficiency: Expertise in industry-standard mine planning software, specifically Deswik or Hexagon, and Civil 3D.
• Regulatory Knowledge: A deep understanding of environmental permitting and safety regulations (MSHA/OSHA).

• Greenfield Specialization: A proven track record specifically in pioneering, greenfield development, or the start-up and expansion phases of a mine.
• Advanced Modeling: Proficiency in 4D modeling (integrating 3D space with time evolution).
• Heavy Earthworks: Specific experience managing heavy earthworks and the contractors associated with these activities.
• Complex Problem Solving: Demonstrated ability to visualize spatial evolution and quickly adjust designs to meet field conditions.
