Hundreds dressed up to the nines for the Zinc Goes Pink at George Fisher mine at the start of October. The event was hosted by Mount Isa Mines to support cancer charities and was hosted by Kerri-Anne Kennerly. Sanctum Media Spa Retreat paid $6200 for the naming rights to a pink 50 tonne Caterpillar loader now renamed “Sanctum”. Charity recipient North West Queensland Breast Cancer Support Group president Trish Olsen called it a “once in a lifetime event”.
