  • Revisiting Inscriptions on the Investigator Tree on Sweers Island, Gulf of Carpentaria
    REVISITING INSCRIPTIONS ON THE INVESTIGATOR TREE ON SWEERS ISLAND, GULF OF CARPENTARIA COLLINS, S. J.1, MATE, G.2,1 & ULM, S.1,3 The Investigator Tree, so named after Matthew Flinders’ ship HMS Investigator, is an inscribed tree currently on display in the Queensland Museum. Before being accessioned into the Queensland Museum’s collection in 1889, the Investigator Tree grew on the western shore of Sweers Island in the southern Gulf of Carpentaria. The tree’s “Investigator” inscription, attributed to Flinders (1802), provided the catalyst for future and varied forms of European inscription making on Sweers Island, including a contentious additional “Investigator” inscription on the Investigator Tree carved by Thomas Baines in 1856. Previous researchers have speculated that Baines’ second “Investigator” inscription has caused the faded original “Investigator” inscription to be misinterpreted as either a Chinese or Dutch inscription predating Flinders’ visit to Sweers Island. For the first time, this study undertakes a physical examination of all markings on the Investigator Tree, including a second portion of the tree located at the Queensland Museum since 2009. In com­ bination with a review of the archival and historical record, findings provide alternative interpretations regarding the (28) inscriptions to address outstanding questions. Archival documents demonstrate that there were at least three inscribed trees on Sweers Island. This paper also revisits the possibility of there once being pre­Flinders inscriptions on the Investigator

The EHM ore body is an iron oxide copper gold deposit with an average grade of 1 %copper, 0.5 g/tonne gold and 23% magnetite, with current reserves of approximately 88 million tonnes. The copper concentrator is a single line plant with a nominal throughput rate of 1,300 tonnes per hour. An average of 350,000 tonnes of concentrate is produced each year containing around 100,000 tonnes of copper metal and 120,000 troy ounces of gold.

  • Early Settlement of Hughenden and District
    PO Box 274, HUGHENDEN QLD 4821 37 Gray Street, HUGHENDEN QLD 4821 (07) 4741 2970 [email protected] EARLY SETTLEMENT OF HUGHENDEN AND DISTRICT Ernest Henry All sources agree that Ernest Henry should be given credit for being the pioneer of Hughenden. He was the first to select a pastoral holding here. The Town takes its name from his head station; his claims for the pastoral leases of Hughenden and other runs were the first to be entered in the Commissioner for Crown Land’s register. Hughenden was the name of the Tudor manor house of his grandfather in Buckingshire, England and known to fame in later times as the residence of Benjamin Disraeli, the Earl of Beaconsfield – formerly Prime Minister of Great Britain. Henry was born in May 1837 and served as a cadet in the Royal mail ship “Victoria” visiting Australia in 1853. He served in the Crimean War and in 1857 he came to Australia with money given to him by his father. Henry took up “Baroondah” Station stocked with sheep and cattle. In 1863 Henry met up with his cousin, Robert Gray. Gray travelled with Henry to the Burdekin and purchased sheep that later became the founders of the flock of “Hughenden” Station. In 1863 Henry set out for the Flinders River Country. He drove his cattle across sodden plains and descended into “Jardine Valley”. The tract of country that he occupied there he named “Hughenden” Station. Henry took up the following runs on the Flinders River – Canterbury, Hughenden, Sussex and Somerset – thus the birth of the sheep and cattle industry in Hughenden.

  • Early North Queensland
    EARLY DAYS IN NORTH QUEENSLAND EARLY DAYS IN NORTH QUEENSLAND BY THE LATE EDWARD PALMER SYDNEY ANGUS & ROBERTSON MELBOURNE: ANGUS, ROBERTSON & SHENSTONE 1903 This is a blank page TO THE NORTH-WEST. I know the land of the far, fa y away, Where the salt bush glistens in silver-grey ; Where the emit stalks with her striped brood, Searching the plains for her daily food. I know the land of the far, far west, Where the bower-bird builds her playhouse nest ; Where the dusky savage from day to day, Hunts with his tribe in their old wild way. 'Tis a land of vastness and solitude deep, Where the dry hot winds their revels keep ; The land of mirage that cheats the eye, The land of cloudless and burning sky. 'Tis a land of drought and pastures grey, Where flock-pigeons rise in vast ark ay ; Where the " nardoo" spreads its silvery sheen Over the plains where the floods have beeh. 'Tis a land of gidya and dark boree, Extended o'er plains like an inland sea, Boundless and vast, where the wild winds pass, O'er the long rollers and billows of grass. I made my home in that thirsty land, Where rivers for water are filled with sand ; Where glare and heat and storms sweep by, Where the prairie rolls to the western sky. Cloncurry, 1897. —" Loranthus." W. C. Penfold & Co., Printers, Sydney. PREFACE. HE writer came to Queensland two years before T separation, and shortly afterwards took part in the work of outside settlement, or pioneering, looking for new country to settle on with stock.
