Hi Andrea:

You should contact the mining companies directly, but I believe these apprenticeships (if they exist) would be for AU graduates and not to any graduate in the world.

The big companies are:
BHP Billiton, Newcrest, Rio Tinto, Alcoa, Chalco, Shenhua (a Chinese mining company), Alcan and Xstrata

I've heard of it, that's all. Didn't go to Uni here so can't tell you anything about whether it's good or bad. In general I find they're all pretty even and good.
