Camilla, 17, chooses the mine
There aren't many women working in the mines. Camilla wanted to become a machine operator and then a blaster. So she got the opportunity as a mining apprentice for Store Norske.
Camilla Dokken is the only woman working in the coal mine 'Gruve 7' in Svalbard.

Autumn has secured its cold grip around the surface complex at Mine 7. Inside the lunch room there are many men with sooty faces and hands that are having words. There have been so many tourists on the roads, complains a driver. Another talks about how good it is to work in Mine 7 after many years of commuting weekly to and from Svea.
Between the guys sits a girl. Camilla Dokken is not yet 18 years old and is starting her first year as an apprentice for Store Norske.
"I feel I am being treated equally with everyone else," she says, immediately getting nods of agreement from colleagues.
