About Selkirk Copper Mines Inc.

Born from a bold vision and rooted in community, Selkirk Mining Corp. (“Selkirk Copper”)

represents a recent era in Canadian mining. Established through the Selkirk First Nation’s historic purchase of the Minto Mine, we are redefining what it means to be an owner—not just a stakeholder—in resource development. Our foundation is grounded in land stewardship, long-term thinking, and respect for the land and people who call it home.

We are committed to responsible exploration and mining that creates enduring benefits. Our core values—integrity, sustainability, community, and innovation—guide every decision as we work toward a lasting legacy of economic opportunity and environmental care in the

Yukon.

General Scope The Camp Lead is a key member of the Site Services group, responsible for the safe and efficient day-to-day operation of the Minto Mine Site camp, including scheduling and travel bookings, and guidance and leadership of camp catering, and janitorial staff, in accordance with Selkirk Copper policies and procedures and Yukon regulatory requirements. Reporting to the Site Services Supervisor, this position requires strong leadership and interpersonal skills, sound judgment, and strong organizational ability in a remote, rotational camp environment currently supporting a 120 room camp with expansion potential.

This is a hands-on, people-focused role that will also oversee potable and wastewater compliance, and camp maintenance projects to ensure the site is safe, comfortable, and well run as the project moves towards a restart decision and eventual resumption of operations.
