83 Hugh Brown Mining Photographer

Hugh’s many adventures include stories from the Pilbara, Goldfields, Africa, & Pakistan and more. He’s been Underground in the worlds most dangerous mining mountain Cerro Rico in Bolivia, inside volcanoes, and done photo shoots with 3 helicopters over huge open cut mines. Of course there are also crocodile stories from right here in Oz!

Hugh is based in the Pilbara in WA and has travelled the world taking photos of mines, machines, and the people who are part of our global mining family. His books have sold over 50,000 copies.

Hugh is also here to Make a Difference. He shares with us, fond memories of bloody legends that he met in the Pilbara over the years, and also about the world's poorest miners, who do not have a voice.

…Not yet anyway….

Watch out for Hugh’s Garimpeiros Project, & keep the #GiveTheseMinersAVoice in mind, you will be seeing it everywhere real soon!

He’s also an adventurer and a survivalist and wait till you hear what his special place is when life turns to shit! I’ll give you a hint, it’s the TOTAL opposite of mine.
