Round Mountain is an open-pit mine located in Nevada, one of the best mining jurisdictions in the world. The mine uses conventional open-pit mining methods and processes ore by mill and heap leach. Kinross began operating the mine in 2003, and it has since become a continuous improvement leader in the Company’s portfolio. Round Mountain poured its 15 millionth ounce in 2018. Round Mountain and the nearby Bald Mountain mine make up Kinross’ Nevada operations.
The Round Mountain mine is an important contributor to the Nye County economy and, working with local stakeholders, has helped achieve significant improvements in healthcare and education in the area.
The Mechanical Engineering Intern will join the Process Maintenance team at the Round Mountain Mine to support reliability and performance improvement initiatives across the mineral processing plant.

The intern will analyze downtime and wear trends, identify improvement opportunities, and help develop practical solutions to reduce plant downtime and extend equipment life. Project goals will be identified early based on the intern’s skills and interests, and will culminate in a final presentation of findings and recommendations to site leadership.
