Full Production by Peter Finn of Face Contracting

How can we make a real impact on mental health in the mining industry?

In this episode, we chat to Steve Poznik, miner and man behind Dirty Hole Designs – a clothing and merchandise company for miners that goes so much deeper than that.

We chat about his mining journey and what inspired Steve to start a company dedicated to miners, that does so much to support the industry.
