Optimistic Prospectors in Lake Way Pastoral District
The Lake Way district near Wiluna shows potential as a new sheep province with prospecting for copper and gold. The Wiluna Development Syndicate holds an option on 250 acres, with a 300 ft shaft at Gwatia and a possible four month extension. Rail and road links are sought to shorten travel from Meekatharra and Loongorra, while Wiluna’s battery crushes ore for possible large scale treatment.
