Lake Carey

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lake Carey, (29°5′4″S, 122°18′56″E), is a salt lake 80 km south of Laverton, Western Australia within the Laverton Tectonic Zone, that has been associated with the presence of gold since the 1890s [1] and recently there has been renewed exploration drilling. Midas, the company who have sponsored the drilling, estimates that there may be 25 million ounces (780 tonnes) of gold [2] within the site. It has also been reported that there may well be significant amounts of nickel and zinc.

The Wangkathaa people are associated with the land around Lake Carey[3].
