Information

The Gwalia mine is one of Australia’s oldest underground gold mines, with St Barbara having operated this flagship asset for the past 15 years.

The mine, operated by St Barbara Limited, is Australia's deepest underground gold mine and the deepest trucking mine in the world, with a proposed depth of 2,300 metres by 2031.

Visitors can watch the trucks and activity from the lookout at the front of the Gwalia Museum carpark.
