I haven’t been to these places personally, but I know from researching it that they would not have any safety equipment as standard which is a bit scary when you are working in these sort of conditions.

So have you been to any of these “poorer countries” and experienced their mining conditions?

I worked at the place, so no special pass required. I did have to have a lot of safety inductions and be super careful as getting squished could be a distinct possibility. Places like this is Austrailia are quite safe as things are put in place to prevent serious accidents. The same cant be said for poorer countries around the worll though!

Did you have to get a special pass or something to be able to go this close to this sort of machinery?
