Meet our returning parents: Cordelia 👋

Welcoming a new child is one of life’s biggest moments, and when it’s time to return to work, having the right support around you can make the transition that little bit easier.

For Cordelia, what made a difference was her team and how they showed up for her before, during and after parental leave. 👶

“Communication from my team was amazing. They made sure to check up on me, and a few people even came to visit me. They were very supportive through my whole pregnancy journey. The team truly made me feel like a new child is a blessing. That's something I don't take for granted.”

Our return-to-work bonus also helped ease some of the pressures of coming back.

“It’s great that Aeris has this additional benefit – it gives new parents some positive reassurance. Getting that bonus was like a pat on the back, to say ‘well done, we‘re happy to have you back’.”

Safe to say Cordelia's experience left her feeling positive about the future, even if she's not quite ready to think about that future just yet.

“That was actually my first child. I think when you have such a good experience, you want to do it again. But not right now!”

We’re proud to support our employees who become new parents during one of the most important times in their lives. 💙

You might have spotted a few of the Tritton crew at this year's NAIDOC Week in Nyngan. Thanks to the Nyngan NAIDOC Committee for inviting us along to recognise and celebrate the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Tritton has been part of the Nyngan community more than 20 years, so it was great to catch up and hear stories from people who worked at the mine in its early days. There was plenty of interest in what’s happening today as well, including how Constellation is progressing.

One of the best parts of the day was the chance to answer questions from people across the community face-to-face. We spoke about local job opportunities, what a career in mining can look like, and the role we continue to play in supporting the region.

Thanks to everyone who came over for a chat, and to the Nyngan NAIDOC Committee for having us. 💙

Fire in the hole! 💥

Constellation’s first blast is done, and we’ve recently hit first ore too. It’s an exciting moment for everyone who has helped bring it this far.

A huge thank you to our people, contractors and everyone else who helped get us here, with a special shout-out to Premier Drill & Blast. Ahead of the blast, the drill team completed 7,000 metres in roughly four to five days – an awesome effort. 👏👏

We’ll let the video say the rest…

R U OK? Day is a reminder to check in with the people around us. A workmate who’s gone quiet. A family member who doesn’t seem themselves. A friend you haven’t heard from in a while. You don’t need the perfect words. Just ask, listen and follow up.

To keep those conversations going, we’re backing the Walk for Awareness next month to raise funds for mental health programs.

If you can’t make it to the event in Brisbane on 18 October, you can Walk Anywhere. Wherever you take part, you’ll be walking alongside thousands of people across Australia to honour the nine lives lost to su***de every day.

Our people will be invited to join our Aeris Walk Anywhere team. Want to Walk for Awareness too? Gather your friends and family together and get involved.

Aeris employees will receive a team registration link. Everyone else can register at walkforawareness.org.au.

Check in today. Walk together next month.

The Nyngan Tigers had plenty to celebrate this season, with three of their sides making the semi-finals, a great effort for a small town in a big competition.

We’re proud to support the Tigers and rugby league in Nyngan. Here's what the club shared about our partnership:

“The support helps our club grow and thrive. Because of Aeris’ contribution, we were able to remain competitive in the Peter McDonald Cup, support our junior and senior teams, and keep local rugby league strong in our community. We are proud to display the Aeris logo on our ground and apparel.”

Well done to every player, coach and volunteer who put in the hard yards. We look forward to seeing the Tigers keep doing what they do best next season. 🐯

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads and father figures across our community! ❤️

Jon, a Senior Shift Operator at our Mill & Paste Plant, has been with Aeris since 2005 and has seen his children grow up, build careers and start families of their own. Phil, a Fixed Plant Fitter who joined Tritton in 2006, recently welcomed a baby girl.

While they’re at different stages of the parenting journey, they both know the rewards that come with being a dad:

“Being a dad just gives you something special to look forward to, no matter what you're doing, you always look forward to getting home to see the kids. It was a lot easier the second time around. I had a pretty good break and took about eight weeks off, using both parental leave and annual leave. It’s great to be there for the early stages. I spent that time taking care of the baby, looking after the wife and helping our little boy through that transition.” – Phil

“My advice would be to spend as much time as possible with them because they grow quick. Before you know it, you’re watching them grow into young adults, find their careers, get married and become parents of their own kids. That’s a very proud moment.” – Jon

Not a bad innings...

After more than eight years underground and 667,313 metres drilled, one of Tritton's drill rigs has completed its final run. 👏

It'll now head to Western Australia for a rebuild and a well-earned fresh start.

A huge credit to the MSD team who kept it drilling safely over the years.

While this machine is moving on, the MSD crew will stay on site with another drill rig, continuing a partnership that has been going strong for nearly 12 years.

There was no shortage of smiles at this year’s Nyngan Ag Expo! And we were proud to be able to help make some of the fun possible. 😁

Through our Grants Program, we helped provide a range of free activities for kids like inflatables, a petting zoo, face painting and balloon twisting.

It's always great to get behind events that bring people together and celebrate our region. Thanks to the committee and volunteers who put in so much work to make the Expo happen.

With the first load now dug from Constellation, it's hard not to think back to the small clue that started it all…

In 2018, our team at Tritton set out to find the next significant copper deposit in the region. Using helicopter survey technology, similar to a giant metal detector in the sky, they searched for signs of conductive minerals hidden deep underground.

One survey picked up a tiny signal right on the edge of our exploration ground. It was easy to miss, but that small “blip” became the first clue that something much bigger could be below the surface.

After securing the ground and completing more detailed surveys, the team drilled the first hole in November 2020. Around 200 metres below the surface, they hit copper.

What came next was years of hard work and collaboration from people across exploration, approvals, engineering, construction and soon, operations. And now, we’re building something that will strengthen Tritton's future for years to come. Great work team!
