Offshore Underground Miners

[gazzasore]

Hi

I was wondering if there are any Offshore Underground Miners on here

Maybe not as jobs are thin on the ground right now

[Ben155]

Yeah mate I've been living in Bangkok now for one year flying in and out of Africa. I'm in Tanzania now. Working underground maintenance.

Hi Ben

What Company are you working for ?

I was in Mali West Africa for a year till 3 months ago working for AUMS on a Solo

Gaz

[Ben155]

I work for byrnecut mate we have a few boys who were with us in Mali aswell but Mali contract has finished, I thought AUMS was still in Mali ?

[gazzasore]

I'm a Solo Opp

They imported People from Ghana to do our Jobs The Gold price was $80 higher then So things must be tough now

Byrnecut Don't have any Solo contracts there do they

I hope to go back to Freeport soon but having some time off right now

[Ben155]

Sorry mate we only have jumbo ops, fitters and elecs on site! Some of our other sites have bogger ops but I haven't herd of any solo jobs offshore yet?

[gazzasore]

Yes I know

No worries

Is it good living in Bangers on your month off

[Ben155]

Yeah I don't mind it as I have lots of friends etc there but some times it's a bit too busy so Iike to get down the coast a bit to get away from it all, I will probably move an hour or two down the coast later this year.

Good for you

I like it in Khon Kaen away from the Hustle and Bustle of Bangkok

Its a good city City it has most things on offer

Oh well good luck

Been bugging me for days so I just gotta ask,

What is a "Offshore Underground Miner"

[gazzasore]

An Expat that works in another county Underground in the mining Game

[Daffy D]

Oh! OK I get it offshore but not as on a rig

We used to call it Overseas

[Ben155]

Basically any mining or drilling etc that's done offshore off your home country people refer to as offshore these days, some mining companies even name themselves as such and such offshore minning!

[Daffy D]

Getting a bit confusing

Always considered offshore as in rigs and platforms and dodgy money transactions

Progress I guess

[Ben155]

Yeah not sure when it started but it is what it is.

However there are a few companies starting to develop new deep sea mining ships, so in a few years we might have another name " offshore, offshore mining" ?
