Bowen Gold Mines Show Strong 1900 Output Amid Turbulent Markets
The Bowen gold field reports high ore yields and rising output despite bunker and overseas trade constraints. Miners Hightaised totalled 14.43 tonnes of gold and 2040a silver for 1890, with 26,428 tonnes shipped to Townsville or Bowen for bunker and export needs. Developments include new dip and levels at Mount Coolon, and a 1,000,000 gallon water system contract at Mount Coolon and Attnuw. The year notes improved machinery, electrification, and ongoing tests for kingpin coal projects, while regulatory pressures affected Northern and Central district coal production.
