Publisher's Synopsis
Mary Kathleen Reflections presents a firsthand account of the life of Andrew Cuthbertson who worked as a young mine geologist at the Mary Kathleen uranium mine in North West Queensland, Australia, between 1981 and 1982. This book presents the experiences of a young man entering the workforce for the first time at the height of the Cold War and his often humorous observations of this remote outback mine and the tight-knit community that supported it as the mine drew to a close of operations for the final time in late 1982.
