Description

Tucked away in a gully a short distance from the village of Mount Victoria in the Blue Mountains of NSW there's an almost century-old mine tunnel that is open to the public. In the vicinity of the tunnel is a sparse collection of relics from the mine's heyday in the early 1920s. Known locally as the Blair Athol Mine, it was actually the "Blair Athol No. 4 Colliery". The name came from its developer, the Blair Athol Coal and Timber Company which operated three mines on the fabulous Blair Athol coal field of central Queensland.The Coal Bubble reveals how a former Lithgow coalminer and his links to the Queensland Blair Athol company brought about this enterprise at Mount Victoria. Author Keith Painter shows how the company spent a fortune driving the tunnel through hazards such as ironstone bands, rising water, unreliable electric power, and finally a shortage of capital and support from directors and shareholders.Read how Eli Deeley became a virtual millionaire, how Jack Roberts nearly lost his life, how John Hetherington's visions for the Mount Victoria mine and an open-cut at Blair Athol failed in his lifetime.After reading this epic story you could even visit the mine site!
