Have you heard of NRW? Those are the guys to apply for if you break into Iron ore. They are on all the Pilbara Iron minesites, I'm sure a lot of their guys get poached by Pilbara Iron. If all else fails there's always Marandoo, but I'd use that as a last resort.

nrw is the mob I might have a start with on the rail job I am going through extraman in perth.there is 12 mths work, I will have a go at the mines after this job hopefully it will be a foot in the door with NRW if they are in the iron ore mines

It's interesting to say the least minus 45 in winter and up to 40 in summer and being in a rural area we have bloody cows that come from the fields everyday about 200 hundred of them and the locals make them walk down the middle of the road as they head back to there holding pens so you weave in and out of the cows for a mile or so as these dopey buggers couldn't give a rats behind.

The locals drive there cars with no seltbelts and usually drunk so we often see cars smashed on the side of the road with dead bodies by the cars and truck rollovers are common around here it's sheer madness and scary best part of this place is flying home after 8 weeks.

But at least we can snow board at work in winter as we have big hills and stock piles so it's not all work around here.
