In early February 2008 I made a trip to Denver Colorado , USA. The learned town of Golden just outside Denver is where the most prestigious University of Mining is situated. Under the tutorship of Tim Cross and his Instructors the short course on Microtunnelling brought the science of tunnelling to new life. Amazing new technological developments were introduced that have been used successfully and accurately in parts of Europe. Much food for thought was left as to how we here in Australia could adopt and evolve this technology to our advantage. The opportunity to meet with these creative Engineers and share there enthusiasm was extremely motivating. Great doors of opportunity lie ahead in developing this art and we look forward to sharing in it.
