Mt Gordon Vac Work: 5th & Final

Twas my last swing at Gunpowder, and it was quite an exciting one. The boys seemed to know it was my last 9 days, and hence I bought a lot of cartons that week. Throughout the week i was working on ore hardness testing, which ended up failing after 8 days of work, and needless to say I wasnt very happy. On my last night i had a big party with maybe 20 friends from Gunpowder, which ended close too 3 oclock in the morning, and we had to be at work by 6 :(.

Overall Gunpowder was a good first experience, I had fun, and I learnt a whole lot from the guys there about processes, and the mining industry in general. I now know what to expect when i graduate.
