The Super Pit, Kalgoorlie, Western Australia
On the Golden Quest Discovery Trail, Site 25 is the Super pit at Kalgoorlie. The lookout is open from 7am to 7pm daily, and there is no charge. It is a great opportunity to see a working open pit mine and marvel at the sheer bloody size of it. The pit is ginormous (very large) and the machinery used there is huge! The pit is 3.5 kms (2.2 miles) long 1.5kms (0.95 miles) wide with a depth of about 800 metres (2,624 feet) deep. KCGM is also exploring under the pit to test minera
