Went to Mt Isa back in 1982 while on a holiday at nearby Kynuna,
seemed like a bloody hot town with a mine in the middle. A mate lived out there for a while and brought home a shirt that said, "Happiness is seeing Mt Isa in the rear view mirror". As for the size of the place I can't help with that one. Ed ![]() |

mt isa is a town built around (actually, over) a mine. the population there relies on the mining and processing of silver, lead and zinc. just a typical normal mining town in the middle of no-where. not everyones prefered lifestyle.
it is the largest city in area, 43,000 square kms from cloncurry all the way to cammoolweel on the NT border. |
