Mining is one of the Northern Territory's main primary industries and with much of the state left unexplored there is room for the mining and energy exploration and production industry to grow.

There are around 40 mining companies operating out of the Northern Territory. These companies are exploring and producing Gold, Gas, Rare Earths, Uranium, Coal, Hot Rocks, Lithium and Phosphate to name a few. To search for a specific mining company, mineral or resource visit the web's most comprehensive, online database of ASX (Australian Stock Exchange) listed mining and energy companies www.Australian-Shares.com.

There are many high paid, job opportunities in Northern Territory mines and mining offices for skilled and non skilled workers. Most of these mines and operations are located in remote areas and often rely on a fly in and fly out or drive in drive out basis. This allows the miners to take their rest in the city.

Many people who work at mines in the Northern Territory choose to take their time off in Darwin due to the many leisure activities, excellent fishing and great restaurants and pubs.
