Corella Dam

The Corella Dam was built to supply water to the Mary Kathleen uranium mine. Later another dam, the Mary Kathleen dam was also built to allow for anticipated expansion of the mine. Water from there was never used for the mine since all the uranium had been mined and the mine was closed. The town was sold to tender and everything except the concrete blocks and streets taken away.

We drove quite a distance around the Corella dam and saw some more birds that are not always seen in the river below the dam. There were hundreds of caravans camped all around the lake with many taking spots along the spillway and other easily accessible spots.Okumaya devam et
