Congratulations Hayley Butler!
Hayley started at QMAG, as the Kunwarara site cleaner, in January 2023, keeping the mine site clean and learning about other employee roles.
As of early 2024, Hayley moved into the role of Administration Officer, based at Kunwarara.
Prior to her QMAG career, Hayley worked as a Barista, at a café in Rockhampton for 12 years, where she learned many skills - not just the art of making coffee.
From our Ore to Your Door - Episode 8 - In Pit Screening
QMAG currently mines 4 million tonnes of ore per year, from six to eight different pits.
We choose pits based on their magnesite content and contaminant concentrations. There are always at least two pits mined simultaneously to provide the Parkhurst plant with enough material at suitable quality to support our full suite of products.

From our Ore to Your Door - Episode 6 - Mining Pit Development
With exploration, drilling and planning complete, it’s time to start mining. First, surveyors stake out the boundary of the area to be mined. A clearing permit verifies that the area to be mined is within the active lease, has
been cleared by the local Land Council, and has the correct government permit to be mined. Now the pit development can begin.
