After completing his training and education with his undisclosed teacher, Keith was finally ready to begin his career in mining and prospecting. He began his career by simply going from contract to contract that usually lasted a couple of weeks as the scale of operations were typically small. Often times with each contract Keith would mostly be put to work verifying the layout of the area and what types of minerals might be found within. Other times, with the odd contract lasting for months or more Keith would be put to work doing the manual labour alongside many other contract workers. One thing was always apparent though and that was the joy that Keith felt doing his job.
