Probably not. There are lot of people flooding to mining areas looking for that 'pot of gold' & coming unstuck unable to find either work or affordable accommodation. That's not to say you wouldn't drop lucky of course. I lived near a gold mine in Country NSW. Wages were very good of course. The unskilled sector were mainly ex-forces. Can't say that is an 'across the board' situation?
