"I did environmental science so I could work and live in the country or the city. After four years in the minerals industry - absolutely no regrets.”
Emma - Senior Environmental Officer
What would I like to do? Science, engineering, environmental science, community relations, human relations, trades, equipment operators, field assistants, drillers – there are well over 100 different types of jobs in mining.
Mining attracts young, energetic people who want to travel, make friends, work hard and play hard. Live on the coast - work in the outback.
Great pay. Learn while you earn. Graduate salaries can start from $70,000 depending upon your qualifications and skills. Skilled operators and tradespeople can earn that and more.
