All we do is dig up rocks and send them to China = 9% of GDP. Staff with skills are all contractors because BHP & RioTinto are owned by wef through activist investor blackrock. On day 1, we received 'new hiring guidelines.' 1. Female, 2. Under 30, 3. Degree qualification.

WA reliant on Digging up the Australian Landscape for $ export profits from Worlds Biggest Dirtiest Polluting Countries - who manufacture weapons & infrastructure to use against us! There IS NO Greenwashing Mining no matter How Hard they advertise & try!

WA is a quarry. The outlook is good for so long as there are rocks to dig up. Beyond that, poverty.
