Rubbish

highly unlikely - how would they get there?

Davoe, look at your map. Telfer to DQB just a short distance. Maybe my wording could have been better but I was alluding to local miners visiting the place on a regular basis including Exploration mobs in the area. But Mick O below reckons it could be a Kal mob of drinkers. So there you go

it may be a short distance but it may as well be 2000km away
there is no way to get there for the people of telfer - vehicles arnt made available for general use. Also there is no time to get there. Most of telfer staff do an 8/6 roster leaving no time to get out there after a 12 hour shift. some of the contracters do get a 24 hour break but as said there are no vehicles available to get out there

- trust me if it was do - able i would have done it

OK I take your point.

There are a lot of exploration outfits doing geophys and rock doctoring in the area. We ran into one such mob at the top water pump at Rudall last year who had taken the bore over and disconeccted the handpump. Barrack Gold are still in the area somewhere. A lot of work coming out of Nifty, Telfor and the Uranium mob. All of these mobs have plenty of freedom to look about the area when they're not out on a line somewhere. The guys at Nifty used to have functions at the4 Coolbro creek that ofgten they built a stone BBQ and tressel table there lol. I'd say the Kal boys would more than likely contributed.

When my daughter was in Telfer a few years back she went out for trips on their rostered days off, her company allocated her with a landcruiser to go, she would take her friends with her and they would have a lovely time going over Gorges. I don't think it was Rudall that they went to though.

Before anyone jumps the gun, she would be the last person to dirty the landscape out there and certainly would not let her friends do it either.

Dunworkin - wasnt the case when i was there but good on her i would have loved the oportunity

Yes it is a blight that just can't be ignored, especially when it comes to remote areas, such as the Western Deserts including the Rudall River region.

Sadly, the various mining operations with their associated exploration drillers, geologists and mine workers etc do access these waterholes on their rostered days off, where some of them just ~ cut loose ~ and to an extent they don't give a rats because the place is remote enough for them not to be sprung ~ cutting loose ~ and leaving their garbage behind.

What's more of a bastard is that the ones "at one with the land" can and do, on a very regular basis trash pristine waterholes on their way back to their dry community !!!!Image Could Not Be Found

I am sorry, if my words and images offend the people who believe otherwise but good people can and at times do some increadibly objectionable things ~ when they are in remote places.
