Coeur Alaska’s Kensington mine comprises an underground, hard-rock gold mine, associated milling facilities and a campsite in the historic Berners Bay Mining District, 45 miles north-northwest of Juneau. The mine is accessed via company transportation including bus rides and a boat ride through Lynn Canal.

Coeur Alaska is seeking a motivated student to complete a summer internship with our Environmental Department at the Kensington Mine in 2027 (May through August). The Kensington Mine is an underground gold mine located within the Berners Bay Mining District about 45 miles north of Juneau, Alaska.

Our purpose statement is, We Pursue a Higher Standard. Everything we do is fueled by this statement; it is our foundation and inspiration for our actions every day. At Coeur, we PROTECT our people, places and planet, DEVELOP quality resources, growth and plans, and DELIVER impactful results through teamwork.

Our summer internship program will provide you with the opportunity to gain real-world, on-the-job experience at one of our US operating mine sites. Interns are mentored throughout the summer by industry professionals and given ownership of projects with a tangible impact on the mine. Internship experience typically spans about 12 weeks.

Each intern will be creatively and technically working together to create a group presentation, highlighting a company area of improvement. The summer internship experience truly culminates with all interns traveling for an expenses paid trip to Chicago!
