  • First 12 months of employment spent sub-contracting to Hampton Mining doing field service throughout the goldfields region of WA. Hampton had a vast amount of equipment to be repaired and maintained, such as; caterpillar dump trucks, graders, dozers, loaders, as well as; hitachi and komatsu excavators, sandvik surface drill rigs, vovlo articulated watercarts, kenworth road trains and also a range of light vehicles.
