The Goondicum Mine is a former mineral sands operation located 30km east of Monto and 160km south-west of Gladstone
The Goondicum mine was placed into voluntary administration in September 2019 and in October 2020 the former mining leases and environmental authorities were disclaimed, resulting in the site becoming an abandoned mine. When it was abandoned, the Goondicum mine included two open-cut mining pits, three tailings storage cells, and remnant processing plant infrastructure.
State Government remediation works at the site were completed in 2025.
