The Goldfields region
The Eastern Goldfields is the largest region in Western Australia. It covers almost one-third of the State and has a population of about 54,000. More than half of the regions residents live in Kalgoorlie-Boulder.
The Kalgoorlie region has been historically significant in the development of Western Australia, as the center of the gold rush in the 1890s. As well as reminders of those times in the buildings and institutions around the city, there is still a plethora of natural bounty to be enjoyed in its eucalyptus forests, wide sweeping plains, and abundance of wildlife. The cultural mix found in the region is also rich, with a melding of Indigenous and European heritages that has created an area of unique character.
To the southern edge of the region, the pristine beaches provide a stunning backdrop to Australias southern ocean, reached through a corridor of National Parks and wide swathes of unspoiled natural beauty.
The primary industries in the cooler southern part of the region are fishing and farming. The warm, dry northern areas are dominated by gold and nickel mining and industry-related services.
