Summary edit

Description

Mount Morgan An attractive and unusual historic mining town. Located 679 km north of Brisbane, 38 km west of Rockhampton and 240 m above sea-level, Mount Morgan must surely be the most charming mining town in Australia. It was founded as a gold mining town in 1882, and over time the Mount Morgan Mine has produced gold, silver and copper. Mining began at Mount Morgan in 1882 and has continued for over 100 years. The town was named after Frederick, Edwin (Ned) and Thomas Morgan who, on 22 July 1882, pegged out a goldmining lease on Ironstone Mountain (later renamed Mount Morgan).
