Explore the worlds largest open cut iron ore mine! Get up close with the massive 200 ton Haulpacks,
see the workshops and the tyre store to view the massive 3.6 metre tyres.

Gaze into the bottom of the massive pit and watch monster shovels in action.

BWAHAHA.

Thanks, one of them is 60 meters underground. I was told most of the mine tours are pretty shallow.

If you buy the mines cheap you can cut them up into smaller ones and
sell them as wells.

There certainly are some tours.

Some you are free to occupy too. Unlikely that you will get any response to an email with those tho.

Free to occupy? Like drive your campervan down a 2km winding tunnel and set up home
for a few months?

I know none of you believe in secret CIA departments using gamma ray LASER beams
on citizens all the day, but I need something with a bit more OOMPH than a tin foil helmet.

My 40DB isolation earphones and mini MP3 player make me 100 times more mobile,
but November Rain and Santa Maria are starting to wear thin.

For instance, 30 meters into Capricorn Caves had no effect on the CIA broadcasts at me
nor does going down 2 levels in a big underground car park.

I'm thinking of testing a sea container on a few feet of iron ore, sitting inside and getting
someone to bury it under a few feet on top of iron ore. Then hopefully dig me out before
the air runs out. 10 years constant sonic torture bites!

I found http://www.australianminesatlas.gov.au/

and searched Historical, Gold, Queensland and got a heap of hits...

but it would probably take me weeks of driving around ( no 4WD ) to find some
walk in or drive in mines to test if I can cut out the Truman Company psychopathic torturers.


No I don't talk like this to the mining co's, I got a reply from Lightning Ridge tour but
it was only 10 meters deep and "fairly open", then she ignored me asking about the
drive in mine there.

Actually my brother has lived in many mining towns, he once said nobody will talk to
anyone unless it's a raise in social status, weird industry. Even he wouldn't answer
my questions.

In summary, which of the above are walk in and accessible and deep?

It seems to me that if you send an email asking about mines to buy,
rent, or tour, then people are going to wonder about your motives. After
all, tourism is rather different from renting or buying.

I'd recommend either asking about touring, or about renting/buying, but
not all three together.

BTW, is mine rental an established mode of business?

Sylvia.

Its just a tad unlikely that you'd get many replys even if
you just asked about buying with major mining operations.

> BTW, is mine rental an established mode of business?

Yes.

Where or how to buy a used mine remains unanswered.
The mine Atlas as long and Lat and a what, but that's it.

A mine is a mine not necessarily freehold. Old disused mines >40 years old are usually boarded up bricked up well, and the landowner wont tell or may not even know or turned it into his own income producing rubbish tip.

In newer mines the goodie goodie regulators want it all filled in.
You would think they would kiss your ass to improve old mines.

Lets say you had the brainwave to buy a disused mine for say, Mushroom growing,
as well as safe place to store a few car restoration projects and household stuff and a backhoe needing hose work while into your 2nd extension of a full on mining contract.

Storage in a suburban storage place costs a bomb, and keeping it in your inner suburban workshop means you miss good rent.

So where or how do you find a big mine, other than random walks until you slip down a vertical covered with rusted corro?

In the USA, minedat.org
In OZ, do your own research but there ought to be something like it.
Then you need to title search the land or walk it yourself.
All mines are subject to Gov't. Regs. Plus they'd rather keep it
bricked up than pay to rescue your ass out of it. Lots cheaper.
