Story: “Hard Time” at Mt. Isa
Episode: 1
Presenter: Scherri-Lee Biggs
Air Date: 19th November, 2022


Scherri-Lee gets down to business and puts on her hardhat for the Hard Times Mine Underground Tour.

  • Considering Mount Isa is, geographically speaking, the largest city in the World, it is certainly not the most visited – fortunately with an APT Private Jet Tour, this remarkable community is but a short flight away.
  • Mt Isa is a melting pot of culture and industry, as revealed on a tour of Hard Times Mine.
  • Descending into the mine in the Alimak Cage, you begin to explore the history of mining as the guides enthral you with their stories of the good times and the hard times that they had working deep under the earth.
  • Guided by an ex-miner, you will see how the tunnels are formed and shaped by the majestic boom drills and mucking units.
  • Get up close with the machinery and try your hand at the air-leg drill and feel the earth rumble with the firing of the blast face. These magnificent experiences will stay with you forever.
