JADE WOODSEN: Have the confidence in yourself and you can achieve anything you set your mind to.

Saison 1 · Épisode 21

dimanche 21 décembre 2025 • Durée 19:34

Jade Woodsen grew up in the thick of the Queensland mining industry at Mt Isa. She has spent 14 years in the mining industry herself and built her mining career across many roles at different sites including the QCoal Northern Hub.

It was all that experience across various machines and in numerous roles that saw her offered the opportunity to undertake her OCE course. She has been successful in obtaining it this year and is already out in the field putting it into action.

The process of obtaining your OCE ticket is no walk in the park so we had a chat to Jade about her experience, her time in mining and advice she has for anyone currently knee-deep in their OCE studies.

This is the final episode for Season 1 of Digging Deeper with @ The Coalface. Thank you to everyone who came along for the ride! We can't wait to get our shovels out again in 2026 and dig even deeper.

DAN ALLEN: Tackling mental health one TradeMutt shirt at a time.

Saison 1 · Épisode 11

jeudi 24 juillet 2025 • Durée 32:29

Whether you're on a mine site in the workshop, in the office, in the corporate office, at a hospital, on a construction site, whether you are just about anywhere you've seen the TradeMutt shirts.

They're bright and colourful and they have a very simple message emblazoned on the back: This Is A Conversation Starter.

Dan and his mate Ed started TradeMutt after one of Dan's good mate's took his own life.

TradeMutt is a social enterprise so the duo also started TIACS, a professional mental health counselling service for tradies, truckies, farmers, and blue collar workers that's completely free. 50 per cent of the profit from TradeMutt goes directly to TIACS making it free for anyone who needs it.

On this episode Jess catches up with Dan Allen to talk about where TradeMutt started, how it's going and some of the incredible stories Dan has heard along the way.

If you're a true Newcastle Knights fan, or even just an NRL junkie you'll know this guest.

There are plenty of other stories in between, from playing for Australia to some pretty memorable tries.

Kurt retired from professional NRL at the end of 2015 having made the second-most appearance for the Knights in the Club's history. He finished his professional career with the Warrington Wolves in the Super League.

These days you'll find Kurt kicking goals in the mining industry as the National Manager - Partnerships and Growth at the Protech Group.

BLACK ROCK MOTOR SPORT PARK: Racing on a coal mine.

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

jeudi 3 avril 2025 • Durée 26:56

This episode of Digging Deeper with @ The Coalface is coming to you from Black Rock Motor Resort Park at Lake Macquarie!

Why? This site was once Rhondda Colliery, with an output of 1500 tonnes of coal per day, the mine opened in 1900 and mining ceased in 1971. Rehabilitation was finished in 2008, which included site remediation and revegetation.

Yancoal had control of the former colliery site until it relinquished its mining lease, and a man by the name of Tony Palmer took control renaming it Black Rock Motor Resort. It will soon become Australia's first dedicated recreation resort park for motoring enthusiasts.

The track has already attracted some big names in motorsport including Dakar and Finke Champion Toby Price.

Jess caught up with Toby and Tony for this episode of Digging Deeper with @ The Coalface brought to you by NSW Mining, responsibly mining coal for today and tomorrow with experts restoring land after mining at every single mine.
