Mount Cuthbert, Queensland

Mount Cuthbert was a former copper mining town in Queensland, and is now a ghost town.
==History==
Mount Cuthbert was one of a string of mining towns created in north-west Queensland (other examples being Duchess and Selwyn) by Melbourne investors eager to profit from high copper prices in the early 20th century. A railway had been opened to the town and copper smelters were operating by 1917, and by 1918 the population was recorded as 750 people. Some of the workers in Mount Cuthbert at the time were Russian and affiliated with the Industrial Workers of the World.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Queensland Places: Mount Cuthbert )
A fall in the world price of copper in 1920 badly affected the local economy, and by 1921 only 267 people remained. By 1927 the settlement was a ghost town, and the railway line was closed in 1949.〔
Mount Cuthbert Post Office opened by June 1910 (a receiving office had been open from 1908) and closed in 1927.
