Mr Sniper911 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 If you dont want to travel that far away... you may want to get in contact with Australian Zircon..... They are building a brand new mine not to far out of Murray Bridge, i see it everytime i go to Adelaide.... im sure they would be hiring soon and you can still cruise back to the city easy.... www.australianzircon.com.au Good Luck Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/182844-the-mines/#findComment-3316802 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_rbman Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 i posted my reply on ns.com but i'll post here too. I go there once every 3 months for work and its defintiely a thing i'd do if i didn't have a family, if your single then go for it! I've got about 5 mates up there at the moment all pulling 130k per year, have been offered 3 jobs making this sort of money but its just not worth it in my situation! I'll pm u my contacts i have up there. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/182844-the-mines/#findComment-3317195 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke_ENR34 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 is it something u can do if u dont have any qualifications? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/182844-the-mines/#findComment-3317205 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_rbman Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 is it something u can do if u dont have any qualifications? u can but its a lot harder to get someone to give u a go, its not like it used to be where they will just take anyone on. It costs them a bit to hire someone nowadays so they wanna get there moneys worth!

~Astro~ Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 If you are condisering mines you should also consider onshore rigs (mostly oil and gas here). FIFO, ususally 2-2 rosters i think. Some of the contractors are Ensign and PDI. I did some engineering work over summer with an oil and gas company based in town and went out to the rigs SA/QLD. Looks ok. Have you thought about FIFO from mines in WA? Thats worth a look too.
