That is the Worthing copper mine engine house and chimney stack and they should still be there as i believe they were heritage listed.
You may want to put up a different photo, you put up Bublacowie military museum in Feburary.

Going by some history the mine was a bit of a scam by the owners who floated it but the mine never made any returns and was abandoned and left a few people broke.

There's a water fall 15 minutes from anywhere in tas;-)

When you get a chance Lucas drop in and check it out The beer they feed the pig is watered down but I still think when they turn it into bacon it would taste pretty good

[taslucas]

Yeah heard about it plenty, driven past it a few times, used to live in scamander not too far away. It's just one of those pubs that get a reputation (usually from tourists and visitors) that far exceeds it. Lol, its just a pub in a paddock after all!

Yeah mate it`s an amazing place would not have liked to have been there when it happened
Two days after we visited there we were lucky enough to see a meteorite burn up in clear blue skies
Have no idea how big it was or how far away it was but it left a very long tail of very white and yellow light and for about 3 hours after you could still see the path it took. The path was a lot darker blue to the rest of the blue sky.

[threedogs]

See how much fragments of meteorite rock are, it's like $100 a gram,
so take your metal detector and scan the outback worth more that gold
Could pay for your trip, looks awesome cut looking at styrations,,

[threedogs]

Big water trough means Big station, so Anna creek is my guess,

[TPC]

Myalls Bore and Cattle Trough near Derby?

[Cuppa]

Not a bad guess TD, but TPC has it correct. It is the cattle trough at Myalls Bore, about 7kms out of Derby, WA. Originally built in 1916/17 to service 500 head of cattle at a time (not sure of it's length) & later extended to 120 metres. Just behind where I stood to take the photo is the 1500 year old Boab prison tree.

Need more clues, is it in Laverton area?

[pearcey]

Sorry Lucas but Coolgardie is SE of Kalgoorlie

[Cuppa]

Not much shows up NE of Kalgoorlie on the map. Looks like it was a fairly significant infrastructure. Was it a processing plant of some sort? Can it be seen by today's tourists or only accessible to those in the industry? I recall passing a few large mines out in the goldfields between Kalgoorlie, Kookynie, Laverton & Leonora, but no infrastructure like that which we could get close too. Or are we further north than the Leonora - Laverton road?

Cuppa

[threedogs]

Looked to me as it was no longer operational.

[pearcey]

This is old infrastructure and is accessible to the public and it is still a working mine but it has significance in our history around 1969

[taslucas]

Sorry Lucas but Coolgardie is SE of Kalgoorlie

[Cuppa]

Just on the date, I'll take a guess at Gwalia, but if it is, I didn't see a structure like that there.

Another guess based on a bit of googling - Posiedon Nickel mine, Windarra?

Cuppa

Lol at least it shows im not just cheating on google maps! haha

Its not cheating, its research. lol

[pearcey]

You got it Cuppa mate Prosiedon
They are still mining there but access to the old mine is no problem and if anyone is out that way its well worth the visit
In September 1969 Prosiedon shares were $0.80, in October they were $12.30 then by February 1970 the price was $280 then the big crash Google is my friend for some interesting reading

In the 2nd pic is an old motor, broken beer bottles & an old battery. extra brownie points if you can identify the motor (I have no idea)

A clue .............. this chap is royalty.

[GUtsy ute]

Prince Charles?

The only one with ears big enough to challenge Mike Tyson after the Evander Holleyfield fight.

[Cuppa]

No not Charlie, not even related. He is however responsible for an intetesting bit of Aussie history, & continues to be so.

[TPC]

When you say royalty do you mean he is literally a royal?
Not British royal though if not related to Chucky?

Google has not helped me so far.

[2TROLLFAM]

Is the head made of stone or wood?

Is he the fellow on the $50 note?

[Cuppa]

Yes he is literally a royal (but with a twist).
The head is made of stone.
No he has never been on any Australian banknote, but was on a $5 coin.

not that bloke out of Kalbarri.Prince of hutt river province?at a guess with a clue like that

neil

[Cuppa]

That's the bloke. his Majesty Prince Leonard of Hutt, & the location is the Principality of Hutt River/Hutt River Province.
Ruled by Prince Leonard & Princess Shirley, the Principality has it's own mint, postage stamps & will stamp your passport.
A good story of a farmer who decided not to be pushed around by the Australian government.
