Kalgoorlie and its sister town Boulder are WA's gold towns. The rush started back in 1839 when a prospector found gold lying around on the surface. Nowadays the gold is mined on a large industrial scale. Have a look at the enormous Super Pit, the largest open cut gold mine in Australia. It will be 3,8 km long, 1,35 km wide and 500m deep when completed.
You also sound miss the Mining Hall of Fame where you can visit an old underground goldmine and wash gold yourself.
Another feature of Kalgoorlie is the beautiful pub architecture, especially along Hannan Street. |

Great that you broke your trans-Australian journey to visit this historically and commercially important town. What tales those old pubs could tell! leyle | Mikebb Thu Jul 26, 2007 00:49 UTC
Hi Birgit, Visited Kal many times but have not seen as much as you did, will shame me into driving 700 km to see the place properly. | ChristinaNest Wed Oct 25, 2006 04:23 UTC
