Site information form
I worked at Osbourne in 2006 building the paste plant for its underground operations. The place has really nice client rooms although the contractor rooms were very bad. Camp food was ok and the people were nice and friendly.
Being in central Queensland it got ridiculously hot so the pool at camp was always a good spot to be. I think they are back up and running now which is good to hear, last i heard they had cut a lot of jobs due to high running costs.
