The site is known for the Cadia East underground mine – one of the world’s largest gold deposits – which uses innovative block caving methods to produce gold doré and gold-rich copper concentrate. Unlike remote mines, Cadia is a residential (drive-in, drive-out) operation where many employees live with their families in nearby communities, enjoying the Orange region’s excellent lifestyle and amenities.</span></p><p> </p><p><span style="font-family:tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:12.0pt">Cadia’s team has a collaborative culture built around safety, innovation and community partnership. We proudly support local towns through jobs and in-kind contributions and even run an Indigenous Buddy Programme to welcome and mentor new Indigenous employees. Working at Cadia gives you all the growth opportunities of a Tier-1 mine within a friendly regional setting – a place where you can advance your skills, be home with family, and contribute to both Newmont’s success and the prosperity of local communities.</span></p><p><span style="font-size:16.0px"><span style="font-family:Tahoma, Geneva, sans-serif"> </span></span></p> <div><div style='padding: 10px 0px;border: 1px solid transparent;'><div style='font-size:16px;word-wrap: break-word;'><H5 style='font-size: 1em; margin: 0px'>Your Impact</H5> </div><div><p><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">As an Engineer Geotechnical – Underground Operations, you’ll provide practical geotechnical support to help maintain safe, stable underground mining conditions at Cadia.
