Understand where the work is — and what to verify.
A mine-site profile should help applicants research, not spread rumours. This directory begins with major Australian mining regions while individual public-information profiles are prepared and checked.
Pilbara
Large iron-ore operations, extensive FIFO workforces and long-distance logistics. Perth is a common departure point, but every ad must be checked.
Goldfields
Gold and nickel districts around Kalgoorlie and surrounding regions, with a mix of FIFO and residential/DIDO arrangements.
Bowen Basin
Major coal region with FIFO, BIBO, DIDO and residential work. Queensland coal requirements differ from hard-rock mining.
North-West Minerals Province
Base-metals operations across remote north-west Queensland, including underground and processing work.
Hunter Valley
Large open-cut coal region where many roles are residential or DIDO rather than classic FIFO.
Gawler Craton
Remote copper, gold and other mineral operations with site-specific travel and roster arrangements.
What every site profile will separate

- Job-ad evidence: departure points, roster and role requirements
- General worker experience clearly labelled as variable
- Information that needs rechecking because operations change
What will not be published
- Confidential procedures or security information
- Unverified accusations or named-worker gossip
- Safety instructions that replace site training
- Claims that one mine represents the whole industry
