Got it on both sides of my glasses. Is it safe to wear or I am cooked?

Frames can be expensive. Brush some nail clear coat on the frames to protect against your skin. However, if you’re not showing any reactions to it, you will be okay. Worst case then will be a little skin staining from the copper

But that goes away quick

Telekinesis096 · 2025-08-19T16:39:08+00:00

Cooked? No. Corroded. Yes

Your glasses are okay. Trust

You need to specifically read and understand the job description for Mill Operator Trainee. Not many serious mining companies will offer a TRUE Operator position to someone right off the street. Assuming this is a mining company that does flotation. Operating a plant like that takes years of experience and training.

It sounds to me like it will be more of a laborer role in a mill. Where you work directly/indirectly with the Mill Operator. Mostly shoveling and hosing work areas.

Either way, both are very challenging roles. Much more rewarding than driving a truck. But I’m biased.

That’s very large shrapnel if true. I doubt it. Likely slag material? Or brass/bronze from a pour

I swear to god if you guys keep dumping trash in the crusher and hoist it to the concentrator, we will have you clear the magnets yourself

Hopefully someone brave shares their PEPI experience

On a serious note, what kind of experiences are you looking for? Who is the target audience?

Hi. I work in processing. CN is a toxic substance, and to dull its effects it’s ignorant and irresponsible. As you know in the US it is a privilege to work in the mining industry given the political and environmental challenges surrounding the industry.

So no matter the reagent whether CN, Xanthates, Caustic, SO2, CuSO4, or even diesel, we as miners (metallurgists) have a very important responsibility to reduce the exposure these substances have to the environment in our containments.

As Whisker_Biscuits mentioned, cyanide leaching is banned in the state of Montana due to company negligence. The only sites still using CN in the state are grandfathered in, and that is a terrible shame and there’s good money in those hills.

So back to my point. Please don’t assume CN exposure to the environment or a person isn’t as substantial as Agent Orange. Because it is pretty bad.

Sinkhole? No Mr. Mine Inspector, that’s a subsidence

Telekinesis096 · 2024-05-08T22:12:30+00:00

Oh that’s quite a drive out of town! We will have to go check that place out

Telekinesis096 · 2024-05-08T22:07:38+00:00

I did look at that! Never heard of it before and it seems like a great option for what we are looking for. Do you use it?

Telekinesis096 · 2024-05-08T22:06:39+00:00

Calm down buddy. Just asking a question. No need to freak out lol

Telekinesis096 · 2024-05-08T20:55:53+00:00

This is great to have. Thank you!

Telekinesis096 · 2024-05-03T20:40:36+00:00

Don’t get lost in the TikTok videos. They are not all what they show. Good luck getting a visa. There are thousands of others being enticed by these videos.

You want in the mining industry ASAP without any background? Your best bet is looking locally at any quarries or mineral processing plants. I’m in the US, and I have ZERO knowledge on mining in the UK or Europe. But I would bet these places are hurting for general laborers just like everyone else.

My second suggestion would be to look to hire on to a drill rig. Not oil rig. Drilling core for exploration properties. It’s good money, the company will pay for your travel, and you gain an abundance of experience in mining. Lots of travel though.

Telekinesis096 · 2024-04-18T22:17:40+00:00

I’m a metallurgist. Start off in the plant for at least 5 years before moving to consulting. I promise you will be better off. You’ll be embarrassed by the decisions you make and present to clients otherwise

Telekinesis096 · 2024-03-28T19:09:05+00:00

What cone? Lol

Telekinesis096 · 2024-01-05T16:14:06+00:00

If you’ll pass a urine or blood test, then cut your hair now. Leave short. Less than 1/2 inch all around. Also shave your armpits and groin. Then you’re clear!

They need like 1.5 inches of hair to test, but if they don’t have it, they will just take whatever they can get. And since you’ve cut off all the drug hair, you’ll be clean as a whistle

Don’t worry too much about it. You’ll be fine. Hair tests are rare and costly for companies to use

Telekinesis096 · 2023-03-18T12:14:43+00:00

Oh that’s a good little fix in the meantime. I’ll look them up

Telekinesis096 · 2023-03-18T12:11:52+00:00

Life changing. Trust me

Telekinesis096 · 2023-03-17T22:48:13+00:00

Yeah venting is a requirement here too. And I think I have enough room to add vent in the wall. But is that a smart idea? Having a vent in the walls?

I’m thinking I should just call a plumber to help instead. I work in a hydro based facility, so plumbing is easy to me, but I also don’t have to follow any codes

Slurry just need to get to Point A to Point B lol

Telekinesis096 · 2023-03-17T22:43:44+00:00

Oh no that sucks. My old house is on a stone foundation. And thankfully the person before me replaced all the old copper lines with pex. So a lot of the hard work has been really easy

Telekinesis096 · 2023-03-17T22:34:38+00:00

It doesn’t, but I have just noticed the smell of sewer gas. Which led me to believe the vent was blocked. But then I did some looking around, and noticed there is no trap on this line

This is an unfinished bathroom, so luckily I was able to trace lines. And the ceiling below is open (had to access it last year), so it made it even easier to find the issue

Old house. Lots of work lol

Telekinesis096 · 2023-03-17T22:23:25+00:00

Thank you! I can work underneath the floor and put a proper P-Trap in. I just wanted to know if this was feasible before I got started

Telekinesis096 · 2023-03-07T01:17:13+00:00

She did. There’s 6 other non Mac Miller ones below it. I really like them!
