As a mine and in NSW so i think things are a bit different just waiting for more info the hardest part so far is the paper work. And then the different people you have to please begins.
do you have to be a mine manager in QLQ?
Mine manager, technically yes, as soon as operations commence. This is when you need to inform the mine safety mob that you are gonna start the plant....
Mining logs, plant maintenance schedules, compliance this, compliant with that.... Technical reports, financial reports, annual yield report, significant works and rehabilitation report, native title, cultural heritage, peg inspections, surprise inspections and general visits from people you would rather not see!!!!
Love it!!
Bugsey, at first it was a nightmare looking at the shear scale of what was in front of me when I got my first lease.... it does get easier, but never likeable!
Get to know your local mines dept, all the staff, they are there to help. Ask, ask and ask again!! then listen..... people have done it before and may know 'short cuts'. Its an expensive game, a lot will be outlayed before you ever see any yella stuff!
At least with that place, a lot of gear is there already, you did mention one of those trommels works?
What are you gonna load it with, how will you clear your tailings, how sound are your containment/settling ponds........
and why did the previous people quit mining and leave working gear there????
