There were many more than three Queensland towns in which gold was a major mining metal. The three main ones would perhaps be considered to be:Gympie, where payable gold was first found in 1867. At the time, Queensland was in severe economic trouble, so Gympie was given the nickname of "the town that saved Queensland".Charters Towers, in central Queensland, where gold was found in 1871. Charters Towers is still considered Australia's richest gold mine for its time.Mount Morgan, near Rockhampton, which worked gold from 1882 to 1981.
