If you tell 80 % of your work force, ie white males, that you hate them and actively discriminate against them dont be surprised if they leave and tell their sons and their mates sons, to dont get into mining. I have worked in mining for 30 years most of it internationally. I know if i went back to oz i couldnt get a job because i am a white male. So next time you have an underground fire and there arent enough white guys on shift. Raid the nearest feminist university for some women. The wont be risking their lives but thats another issue. I have a 14 year old son and he told me he wanted to get into mining projects. I said why work for people who hate you. He thought about and said i think i eill find something else to do.
