Company Description Mining Blueprint is a geoscience-focused platform dedicated to advancing knowledge and practical workflows in mineral exploration, geophysics, geochemistry, and mining engineering. The organization supports students, early-career geoscientists, and mining professionals by offering structured, concept-driven learning resources. Its work centers on connecting academic geoscience concepts with real-world exploration and mining workflows. Team members collaborate with experts to develop materials that are both technically rigorous and highly applicable in the field. Mining Blueprint fosters a learning-focused environment for individuals interested in the science and technology driving modern mining.
Role Description The Remote Sensing Technologist internship is an on-site role based in Colorado, United States. Interns will support the development and application of remote sensing workflows for mineral exploration, including processing and interpreting satellite and aerial imagery, and integrating datasets with geophysical and geochemical information. Day-to-day tasks may include data acquisition, image preprocessing, feature extraction, map production, and documentation of methods for educational and professional use. The role involves collaborating with geoscientists to translate technical results into clear, concept-driven resources and case studies for the Mining Blueprint platform. Interns are expected to maintain organized project files, follow established protocols, and contribute to continuous improvement of remote sensing tools and workflows.
