Kuujjuaq, Canada GroundTruth Exploration Inc Full time

**Advanced Drone Operator**

**Company**:
GroundTruth Exploration is a company with a dedicated team providing new and innovative exploration methods which help increase the odds of successful mineral deposit discoveries. With our Drones to Drills approach, we significantly reduce exploration costs and environmental impact.

**Job Overview**:
**Working Conditions**:
The position requires employees to work outside in various terrain and weather conditions. The weather conditions include but are not limited to; a temperature range of -35°C to +35°C, very dry to very humid climate, heavy rainfall, lightning storms, wind and snow. Terrain can vary from rolling hills to steep mountain sides. A typical field season runs from mid-May to late October. Work days are 12-hour shifts that run 7 days a week for the duration of the project unless otherwise stated.

The project location may be reached by a variety of transportation methods such as; truck, helicopter, boat, fixed-wing aircraft or all-terrain vehicles. Accommodations will be provided depending on location, and may consist of a wall tent with satellite internet and all other camp elements. Employees will be working and living in close quarters with the rest of their crew for the duration of the project. Extreme isolation in a wilderness setting is one of the perks of the job but is also one of the factors that increases the risks with this type of work. Wildlife is plentiful, including bears and moose. Communication outside of camp may be limited as there is no cellphone service. Exploration projects are frequently remote and isolated. It is important to recognize that transportation between the project and the city may take upwards of 10 hours.
