Hello Handymandy,
I worked at Mt Leyshon and we didn't have much to do with Wirralie even after Normandy took over ACM. I would have known the ACM geos for sure but can't for the life of me remember any of their names.
I also met a lot of ACM geos at a meeting in Adelaide after Normandy took over - none of them were very happy at all about the takeover. From memory ACM was a great little company that certainly didn't need to be taken over but pretty much the same thing happened to us at Leyshon 18 months or so earlier.
Surprisingly I even went to the official opening ceremony as the Mt Leyshon rep, my main memory of the day being hitting a cow on the way back home by the back road between the Burdekin Dam & Ravenswood which rather buggered the day completely.
Hopefully some former workers are on the list for you.
All the best,
Ian Hodkinson (now up at Mungana) near Red Dome
