Mark Creasy
Mark Gareth Creasy (born 1944) is a Western Australian mining entrepreneur. Biography Creasy arrived in Australia in the 1960s, and trained as a mining engineer. He has developed various mining projects in Western Australia and other states. By 2010 his net worth was claimed to be $283 million (AU). Creasy had discovered the Bronzewing Gold Mine, and had sold the mine in the 1990s. By the early 2000s he had had a ten year long legal battle over Bronzewing South tenements with rival Leith Beal. Many journalists fall back on terms such as ''Midas'', and ''prospector'', when describing Creasy's wealth and achievement in finding and investing in resources. Creasy pledged 500,000 towards the construction of a statue called ''Ascalon'' in Cathedral Square, Perth, and also contributed towards floating rocks in fountains in Forrest Place and the Carlisle operations of the Department of Mines Industry Regulation and Safety.

Australians
Australians, colloquially known as Aussies, are the citizens, nationals and individuals associated with the country of Australia. This connection may be residential, legal, historical or ethno-cultural. For most Australians, several (or all) of these connections exist and are collectively the source of their being Australian. Australian law does not provide for a racial or ethnic component of nationality, instead relying on citizenship as a legal status. Since the postwar period, Australia has pursued an official policy of multiculturalism and has the world's eighth-largest immigrant population, with immigrants accounting for 30 percent of the population in 2019. Between European colonisation in 1788 and the Second World War, the vast majority of settlers and immigrants came from the British Isles (principally England, Ireland and Scotland), although there was significant immigration from China and Germany during the 19th century. Many early settlements were initially pen ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Australian Mining Entrepreneurs
The Australian mining industry has had a series of people who have had significant impact on the Australian economy as well as the mining industry due to their wealth, and their investment in the industry. Sometimes they are designated as ''Mining Magnates'', and they are ascribed other titles such as ''Mining Tycoons'', however in most cases they are significantly very public figures in the media of their times. Also during various changes in the national economy and mining industry some smaller players have had to adapt to the change. There have been occasions where they join in protest against politicians, or alternatively they become leaders of political parties, or politicians. The claims that Australian mining entrepreneurs have control over the political process also arises at times. At times tycoons have also been known to have rivalries and difference that become public. Some people who have been more acutely private about their wealth and lives, also can be understood ...
