Charters Towers History

Historically, the Charters Towers goldfield was renowned as Australia’s richest major field, with an estimated production totalling in excess of 6.6 million ounces. Throughout its lifespan between 1872 and 1917, the fields recovered 6.1 million tonnes of ore, at an average ore grade of 38 g/t.

The Charters area represented the largest gold producing field in Queensland, comprising 36 percent of the state’s total gold production. The gold ore grade from the Charters Towers mines was almost double that of Victorian mines and almost 75 percent higher than grades of Western Australian (Kalgoorlie) goldfields of that time.
