Guest Glenn Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 Located near Orange NSW is a huge gold mine called Cadia. Today we flew over it for a look after a working bee at the airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest OzChris Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Great shots Glenn...what were you flying in? Those open cut mines are pretty amazing...the best (and biggest) I have seen is the 'super pit' in Kalgoorlie WA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Glenn Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Left out the most important piece of info didn't I? It was the RAT Cessna 210 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Darren Masters Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Nice one Glenn! Looks like you had fun Also looks like you have solved the mystery on the mine I took a pic of on my return from Vietnam with Viva in March. I knew it was somewhere around that area. You think it is the same place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Glenn Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Not Cadia. Cadia only has one big open cut hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Glenn Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 I reckon it's the North Parkes Mine near Parkes NSW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TAA finny Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Ah, Cadia, was a great landmark in the Orange Training Area. And yeah that does look a fair bit like North Parkes, again another great landmark out this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
