  • i'll give you a tip: he's speaking english.

  • I grew up in a town called Kambalda - `Kal' was the big city we'd go to on Saturdays to do the shopping - top place! The bus always went down Hay St (which is all brothels to keep the miners happy) - they'd all sit out front and wave to the kids on the bus as they went past - it was the best place to live! Kambalda is on the edge of a 100 mile long salt lake where you could drive 3 wheeled land yachts at 60 mph... not everyone had a car but most had land yachts (home made...)

  • @the06bug not bad idea, only they have to employee one man who push the people out at closing hours.

  • 1:45 Jordana Beatty, don't you EVER become one of THOSE types. EV-ERRRR!!!!

  • "The richest square mile - IN THE WEEEEEHHHHLD!"

  • I guess trading 500 Million Dollars worth of Dynamite, 1 Billion Dollars worth of Machinery, 100 Million dollar Pay-out to get 1 Billion Worth of Gold is worth it. Gold is a rarity.

  • @tnguyen318 obiviously not. hahahaha how could companies survive if they are losing money? especially 50 million dollars. duh!

  • As a courtesy to you, I wanted to let you know I’ve included this video on our YouTube Channel: Mining Oil and Gas Jobs.

    If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me. We’re always looking for good content and thought this video was a good addition.

  • Let the miners drive a Prius down there and the problem of the tin can is solved!

  • How smart are we? We spend $1 Billion Dollars mining for Gold that we can sell for only $950 Million.

  • @tnguyen318 Lucky that's not a coal mine then aye... It's Nickel
