Fuchs lubricants, one of Glencore's long-term suppliers and a major sponsor of TEAM 18 racing, said they were excited to bring Frosty to Mangoola for his first ever experience at a mine.

"Fuchs has been supplying lubricants and services to Glencore managed operations for more than three decades," Fuchs General Manager Mining Rob Fryer said.

"We have been supplying the Mangoola operations since the mine was first commissioned.

"As part of our strong relationship, we were keen to get Frosty out to site to see the Mangoola team in action and to demonstrate our ongoing support for the operation."

With a Bathurst win, championship win and 100 podiums to his name, Frosty has become one of the leading Supercar drivers in the last 15 years.

"When I heard that I had a number of fans at Mangoola, I had no problems squeezing in a site visit before my next race," Frosty said.

While on site, Frosty spoke with employees about the challenges and highlights of his career as well as the importance of staying focused.

Mangoola Operations Manager Nick Slater said there were many similarities between the motorsports industry and mining sector.

"Both industries operate powerful machinery so it's important to have the right skills, safety protocols and equipment to get the job done," he said.

"TEAM 18 Racing has been extremely successful over the past 5 years and we're keen to learn how they've fostered and maintained their winning culture in such a challenging sport.

"Our employees were able to learn a lot from Frosty and the team, and we hope to be able to share our expertise with them too."
