Not sure if I'm going yet, but thought it might interest some. we went in 2005 and it was a good laugh (i.e. pissup).

Not sure what it's like these days, but it was open pit in 2005.

I was there last year spannering for my mates Morgan team there. It was pretty much open pit if you can find some nice people to let you near. Lots of different machinery there was well worth a visit.
