Shift Miner Magazine

Shift Miner Magazine Welcome to Shift Miner Magazine on Facebook! If you work in mining or gas in Queensland, get online and tell us what's happening in your world.

If you ask a Queensland miner or gas worker what they read on site, they'll tell you it's Shift Miner. Whether it's flicking through the Miner’s Trader classifieds for a new set of wheels, doing the crossword in the crib hut, or laughing at Frank the Tank’s latest love advice in the mess, Shift Miner has been keeping miners amused for nearly a decade. In fact, the magazine was the first to establi

sh itself in the region, years before other copycat publications twigged to the idea that the mining industry (or specifically its workforce) was a lucrative market for advertisers trying to sell anything from motorbikes to heavy machinery. Those publications ebb and flow depending on the economic climate (1000s of them in the boom times, not so many standing after the GFC) but Shift Miner has remained through thick and thin. What sets the magazine apart? We care about our readership. Not in a violin-playing, lay-on-our-couch-and-tell-us-your-problems kind of a way. But we have always poured all our capital into employing excellent writers to provide top quality news and information. That's why we have a dedicated paid readership who'll fight over the last copy of Shift Miner when the magazines are delivered on site. In 2013, Shift Miner is still delivered to subscribing work sites and mining camps across the Bowen Basin coalfields, Gladstone and into the Surat Basin gas fields. However, as the habits of our readers changed, so have we. We now have a smartphone / tablet application, and The WINO (Wednesday's Industrial News Online), is delivered to the inboxes of mining executives, business owners, government department staffers, real estate agents and other people within the broader mining support sector who are not in the field every day to read the hard copy. We're proud to have built up a top-quality publication that is now enjoyed across the whole coal and gas community in Queensland.
