Just finished up a year here (contracting) and it was great. I'm impressed with MMG's business model - it's very slick - run like nothing else I've ever seen. The client is hard nosed but fair and at least knowledgeable. I love working with West Coasters - crusty fuckers all of them but they understand the value of pacing yourself. It's a hot mine - really fucking hot - and you have to find that sweet spot in your work rate so you can run through the day at a steady output. Rip tear bust and you will most definitely bust. The mine does not have a good plan for heat management and I can only see that getting worse. Other - wiser - places would have installed a surface chill plant years ago. So that's only going to get worse but apart from the (unpleasant but manageable) heat, not bad. The ground is soft, plastic stuff. It's predictable. Lot of lead, so you better not be a grubby cunt or you'll be leaded out of the mine in no time and if you're with the contractor well, that's the end of you then. I lived in Rosebery for the time I was there as I've good friends on the west coast and this gave me a chance to catch up. The odd trip to Burnie for the sluts (Burnie is thick with them) and I found a regular root in Rosebery with a bird from the bakery that had all her teeth and a symmetrical face. Wasnt an exclusive but hey, I could give a fuck, it was a moist warm hole and that's all that counts.
