Information on Kambalda, WA
Kambalda is a quiet, modern nickel mining town comprising Kambalda East and West, established in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
Located at the site of Western Australia's first gold rush in the 1870s, this purpose-built mining community features carefully laid out streets and uniform architecture, now softened by mature eucalypts and gardens that give it a suburban feel.
The twin towns are situated in the Golden Outback region, offering visitors a glimpse into Australia's mining heritage.
