Q. What is the best pathway to a career in Mining?

Mining contributes billions of dollars to Australia’s economy and creates thousands of jobs each year as well as produces raw materials for key industries like construction.

Minerals play an important role in the development and provision of batteries, smartphones and medical devices. Silver, for example is used in mirrors, jewellery, medicine, water purification, solar panels and 3D printing while nickel is essential for food processing, guitar strings, coins, marine engineering, electronics and the kitchen sink. And minerals such as copper, lithium, nickel, cobalt, manganese and zinc, graphite and rare earths are crucial to battery performance, magnets and EV motors.

Mining is a diverse and important industry in Australia that offers many career opportunities for secondary school students. Mining engineers are professionals who design, plan and manage mining operations and projects. They work with various types of minerals, such as coal, iron ore, gold, copper and nickel. Here are some possible educational pathways to a career in mining engineering for an Australian secondary school student, depending on your interests and goals:
