In the previous years that the WASM Wombats have done so well at the competitions, it would not have been possible without the generous support of the mining industry. In 2006 the WASM Wombats are hosting the competition, plan to defend their title as world champions, and once again represent their school, Australia and show what Australia and especially Kalgoorlie has to offer. So we would like to thank our sponsors below for their continuing support and help for making the WASM Wombats so successful.
