Mining Industry 2023 - CAN YOU GET A JOB? 

Awesome tips mate, I'm setting up my patrol to head to WA from SEQ an slowly aquire entry level tickets/cards to start at the bottom of what ever position I land and eventually work out what an how I can work my way up the ladder. Your videos have given me a good idea on what to expect and the confidence to give it go, much appreciated mate 👍🤙

Great to see your videos keithy,so down to earth and helpful 👍🏻👍🏻 hope your health is improving 👍🏻

Great info, thanks for doing this! hope you are feeling better too!

Hey mate, thanks for the video! Don’t suppose you know much about Rope Access roles in the mines? I’m a newly qualified rope tech and I’m unsure about the different type of rope roles in the mines!

Awesome as always, common sense, but it is needed as there is not much of it floating around lately :)

Love your videos, good insight.

Gday mate good to see you on.

Thanks Keithy, Will be looking more into this, liked on facebook mate.

I have a n experience in electrical engineering in mining open and underground Hv electrical engineering for 23 year

One day I'll make it and work in Aussie.. it's my dream .. thank you keithy🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼

Hey Mr Keith, hope you are well. So i am currently studying with an African Mining Institution, Zimbabwe School of Mines, in Zimbabwe (Africa), im training and studying to be a Mining technician with modules such as Drilling,Explosive and blasting, Underground Mining etc, after graduation with this Institution we usually undergo what is called a GRADUATE TRAINEESHIP with various mines as Junior or graduate Miners, on the road to become a Miner. However, mining in Africa is somewhat primitive and we can only be highly efficient in Zimbabwean mines because we have exposure to them, we do Airleg Jackhammer drilling for instance, very few people have knowledge on drill rigs. So, with that being said, after graduation is it possible for me to come to Australia and acquire a job (that will offer a salary) that will train me to be efficient in the mines that side, and will my Diploma in Mining Certificate be recognised?

Watched a good few of your vids now (Great insight) but got no answer, I'm going to emigrate from Ireland to WA, (Perth) . I have plans to work and make a life over there, is it any harder for a foreigner to get down the hole? Or work in general? Iv heard that some roles underground are only for Australian citizens? Is that true? Ireland has no mining industry so I am in construction as that's the closest I can get to experience with heavy machinery.

Thanks for the info mate 🇻🇺

Hey mate, I'm in Rockhampton, I'm 22, have no formal education or trade but I want to get into the mines. I've done precast + prestressed concrete, concrete kerbing and guttering, scaffolding, some basic metal fab, have a small amount of experience running a big slipform machine. Really I've done a little bit of alot of things. I'm very mechanically minded. I plan on getting my std 11 very soon. What sort of jobs would you recommend I chase?

Very useful information. 👍I would also like to ask, if I obtain a mining engineer degree through university, what kind of position do I usually work in a mine?
