Mount Morgan Mine

Mount Morgan Mine was a historic gold and copper mining operation in Queensland, Australia, active from the late 19th to the mid-20th century. It extracted valuable metals from rich ore deposits through underground and open-pit mining. The mine significantly contributed to regional development and Australia's metal industry. Over time, it became one of the world's largest sources of gold and copper. After closing in 1981, the site remains a notable heritage landmark, with remnants offering insight into mining history and practices. Today, it serves as a tourist attraction and educational site, highlighting the area's industrial legacy.
