Underground mine tour in Mount Isa
What an absolute privilege to have a tour guide with a lifetime of experience hand drilling in underground mines. And to the volunteers of Mount Isa who created this experience - hats off. It’s a must do if you’re in town and worth every penny to gain an understanding of what it takes to mine underground.
What you can expect
Capture the spirit of the Queensland Outback with a visit to the Isa Experience Heritage Display. Do not miss out on visiting this intriguing and entertaining centre that narrates the history of mining with life in the Australian Outback. Mt Isa is also a culturally diverse region and through interactive displays, you can garner a sense of early Australia and the perspectives of Indigenous and Anglo Saxon residents.
Wander through the larger than life exhibits including the Outback Park with picnic areas and lush lawns, the Rodeo Hall of Fame, Mining Exhibits with real-life machinery and the Outback Gems featuring a private collection of crystals and rock formations donated to the centre. The Isa Experience Heritage Display is open to the public, 7 days a week from 8.30 am to 4.30 pm.

Hard Times Mine Underground Tour in Mount Isa Queensland.
A very extensive and interesting tour, tour guide a retired local who had worked in the mines for 50+ years. His knowledge of the equipment and mining kept everyone interested (including the kids) for the 3 hour tour. A well organised and run tour, highly recommended
