considering how much money is being moved there it is amazing how little money is left at the actual location! Actually, replace "amazing" with DISGUSTING in my previous sentence
I'm thinking about going back to Port Hedland and work for blackwoods hardware and mining supplies and I live in my old house in 31 gratwick St Port Hedland
I lived in pt hedland from 2009 to 2012 four year.that was 8yrs ago and but pt hedland still home to me and i missed it alot and thinking going back to work at blackwords hardware store has a storeman
I also don't get the hate over the city. I'd still like to have extremely hot temperatures rather than extremly cold ones. So Port Hedland is definitely better than Norilsk in Russia ;)
This will be my first summer here- I know it is a little bit intimidating for some people - but not really! I will be in the shade at least 50 percent of the time! what do you do Mambo Russel?
I like port hedland and the town and good fishing and towns people are always saying gday when you walk pass and then I miss the town and port hedland has home to me alawys
It's always amazing see these giant iron ore carriers through town to port hedland fortesque metals and bhp group iron ore and Hancock minerals Roy hill mining and it's always keep things for export of our iron ore industry
I lived in Port Hedland 14yrs ago and had my own businesses of cleaning houses and businesses around Port Hedland and sth Hedland and water filtration businesses through cool clear water company and the drinking water in Port Hedland is so bad
If we talk specifics your are correct - I seem to recall that the WA Govt State Ships started just after the First World War. But to compare the port in those days to what is here today is really chalk and cheese.
I still thinking of port Hedland is still home and I'm still of going back to Port Hedland and work at backwoods hardware store and still 10years ago it still home to me
I still think of port hedland has home to me and I'm still thinking of home their also and I lived their in 2009 to 2012 4yrs and I'm still thinking returning to port hedland work for bhp group to drive the iron or trains to mt whaleback
Port hedland has home to me and it's amazing see these big giant iron ore carriers through town to port at Nelson pt and other port operations of different mining company's
I lived in Port Hedland about 15yrs ago it's amazing to see this up close and plus good for our iron ore mining industry is good for shipping out of Port Hedland
I lived there back in the early '70's when the BHP coy was known as Mt Newman Mining and the second company was Goldsworthy Mining - the first iron ore company. They were the ones who had the big turning channel dredged, They also had the 15/20 nm channel dredged and surveyed. It was also the first port to have a three station "Decca" navigation system, today I think its all GPS controlled.
Companies making millions and millions and port Hedland such a small town with no accommodation no building of homes no expansion or business or schools. The mining industry gives nothing to the town this film is nine years ago and still nothing has changed for the towns people or the aboriginal people. Just a few people making millions of dollars.
