24.01.2022 Nope, they're not tiktoking. It's just some of the team from IGO Ltd's Nova site social distancing while getting down to business #KeepingSafeToKeepYouSafe #SafeHandsSafeCommunity #Mining #COVID19

23.01.2022 Our friends at FMG believe sport, and hockey in particular which is renowned for its diversity and inclusiveness, is an important tool that can be used to promote equity. They teamed up with Hockey Australia and created the Pilbara Community Hockey Program - check out what this has meant for the community #NRW2020 #InThisTogether2020

22.01.2022 Mining is the backbone of the Aussie economy, and at a time like this we really need the materials (and products that they make) to help us stay healthy, meet our basic life needs & help us to stay safe and connected with our loved ones. #InThisTogether

22.01.2022 Did you know for the first time in its 160 year history, the Melbourne Cup is 100% Victorian?

21.01.2022 October is #MentalHealthMonth, his years theme is Share the Journey. This means connecting with your community, or on social media, giving your (or someone elses) pet a cuddle, sharing your stories with others, reaching out to someone who might need your help, decreasing the isolation people feel when things arent great or even just to think about our mental health and wellbeing, regardless of whether we may have a lived experience of mental illness or not. #ShareTheJo...urney #mhm #mentalhealthmonth2019 #wayahead #mentalhealthmonth See more

21.01.2022 How cool is this? A Melbourne-based 3D printing company Spee3D is making Copper-coated doorknobs- the latest weapon in the world's fight to control the spread of COVID-19. Copper has broad anti-microbial properties and has already been installed in some hospitals around the world to stop the spread of antibiotic-resistant superbugs. When a bacterium or virus lands on copper, electrically charged particles known as ions jump from the surface into the bacterium, punching holes in it and killing it. #MineralsAreEssential #InThisTogether http://ow.ly/JBYu50zfwV4

19.01.2022 We just want to say a huge thanks to our industry for adapting quickly to the social and physical distancing requirements so we can reduce the spread of COVID-19 and keep everyone safe (while still continuing to do your jobs!) #takeaction #dotherightthing #preventthespread #covid10 #safehands #mining #Covid19Australia

19.01.2022 You don’t have to be an expert to keep the conversation going when someone says they’re not OK. By knowing what to say you can help someone feel supported and access appropriate help long before they’re in crisis, which could change their life. For some tips on more to say visit https://www.ruok.org.au/ #RUOK2020

19.01.2022 The team at Gold Road Resources worked hard during the month of May for the headspace Push-Up Challenge, raising $3,400 to help reduce the number of Australians lost each year to suicide. The team completed 3,046 push-ups during their day, which represents 3,046 lives lost in one year.

18.01.2022 Mining isn't just sparkly things and energy, it's also crucial for our food supply. With food demand outpacing land available to grow, we need phosphate and potash to feed the worlds growing population #Phosphate #Potash #AustralianExplorers #Mining #AustralianMining #MineralExploration

17.01.2022 Happy International Women in Engineering Day! Only around 1 in 10 engineers are women, which is why it is super important to support programmes and opportunities that encourage young women to take up careers in Engineering. These are some of our friends from Kent St Highschool's CoRE Learning Foundation - helping to create up and coming superstars in engineering and our industry! #WomEngineering #INWED20 #ShapeTheWorld

17.01.2022 The Stephen Michael Foundation do some incredibly important work with our Aboriginal communities in WA. We are so proud of our members Australian Vanadium Limited, Sandfire Resources, and Westgold Resources Limited for working with them to make this happen #NRW2020 #InThisTogether

16.01.2022 When Nyiyaparli Elder David Stock mentioned a concern about a plant commonly used for bush medicine to Roy Hill at a meeting, discussion started about working together to record traditional knowledge about plants and their uses. Using their expansive knowledge, plants were identified around the mine site and recorded with the help of a Pilbara-based botanist. The information & knowledge captured during the time on Nyiyaparli country was used in Roy Hills rehabilitation plan, and was preserved for future generations #NRW2020 #InThisTogether

16.01.2022 Good old Copper to the rescue! Aussie scientist Dr William Ducker, has created what is potentially a game-changing copper-based substance that essentially drains the COVID virus of its power. When the coating is painted on glass or stainless steel, the amount of virus is reduced by 99.9 per cent in one hour, compared to the uncoated sample. The coating is made of cuprous oxide, which is essentially recycled copper pipes and wires. More here: http://ow.ly/veEQ50AGNzX

16.01.2022 Most people dont usually associate our industry with nature. Watch how we make time for nature, because caring #ForNature and our unique biodiversity is caring for our livelihoods, our industry and our country #ForNature #WorldEnvironmentDay

16.01.2022 If you're in Perth, and wondering what the machinery on a mine site looks like, head down to Elizabeth Quay! #RTS2019

15.01.2022 "Mining companies make loads of money"... Well, yeah they do, but they also spend heaps too! After all the taxes and royalties there's still loads of other bills for mining companies to pay (including paying lots of Aussie businesses that provide services for our industry) So we made this super simple pic to help people understand the other types of things mining companies' money goes to #MiningMoney101 #AustralianMining #Mining #MineralExploration

15.01.2022 How cool is this! Gold Road Resources & Gold Fields Australia donated a one kilogram gold bar worth around A$72,000 to Telethon7 Perth to help support a better life for children across Western Australia #telethon7 #forthekids #heartofgold #gold #goldmining

14.01.2022 Always Was, Always Will Be. recognises that First Nations people have occupied and cared for this continent for over 65,000 years. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people were Australia’s first explorers, first navigators, first engineers, first farmers, first botanists, first scientists, first diplomats, first astronomers and first artists. NAIDOC Week is a time to celebrate the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. How will YOU be celebrating? #NAIDOCweek2020 #AlwaysWasAlwaysWillBe

14.01.2022 How awesome is this!

13.01.2022 Gold explorer Lefroy Exploration is trialling hessian and paper bags to replace plastic bags used for collecting drilling samples. EVen though the environmentally friendly option is more expensive than plastic bags, the cost would come down if more companies made the switch. Read the full story here http://ow.ly/nZoM50zy5fE

11.01.2022 Here's to strong women. May we know them. May we be them. May we raise them. Happy International Women's Day AMEC Members (and champions of gender equality in our industry) Fortescue Metals Group #EachforEqual #IWD2020 #WomenInMining

10.01.2022 We often hear "but mining companies don't pay tax" Except we do. We also pay levies, fees, royalties, charges & in to compulsory funds - around half the money we make goes here It can be confusing working out which goes where, and for what So we've made a super simple picture to help people understand that even though it might not be called a 'tax', it's still money that goes back to the State, the country and our people. #MiningMoney101 #AustralianMining #Mining

05.01.2022 "By keeping the mines open Western Australia is supporting the whole country, miners are paying company tax which goes to the Federal Government, so it's all the Australian people [who] benefit from the taxes the mining companies pay."

05.01.2022 Thanks to our wonderful members in WA that participated in our Golf Day - we were able to raise just over $2k for the Royal Flying Doctors Service Gallagher Team

04.01.2022 Today is the first day of Reconciliation Week - and like every day - we acknowledge the Traditional Owners and Custodians of Country throughout Australia and their continuing connections to land, sea and community.

This week we'll be sharing some posts, photos, & videos throughout #NRW2020 showing how our industry is working to help achieve reconciliation in Australia. #InThisTogether2020

01.01.2022 Gold Explorers Emmersons have been exploring on the Whatling family's NSW drought stricken farm, so while they've been drilling to find gold, they also drilled a water bore to help the Whatlings out. #gold #exploration #water #workingtogether #partnerships #AustralianMining #AustralianExploration
