Mt Gordon Vac Work: Part 4

http://uqedu.facebook.com/album.php?aid=87936&l=f54b4&id=742020110. A link to my Mt Gordon Photos.

For My 4th stint in Mt Gordon, i joined the ranks of the metallurgists and started work on a major project of identifying and mapping the water systems of the plant, this involved a few days of research and note taking around the plant and then a few days of finishing my design. I also moved up into the '5 star rooms' for the 9 days because one of my mates was on holidays and loaned me his room for it. After I finished i spent 5 good days in cairns at the beach and wandering the rainforest. Apart from that i only have 9 days left at Mt Gordon left, and then i can say goodbye to gunpowder for a while.
