This mine is at Texas in qld, one of my favourite fishing destinations.

Just another mess left when a mining company goes into liquidation. Add it to the long list of 50 000 abandoned mine sites across Australia. Wonder what will happen if the political class get their wish of watering down the so called 'green tape'.
