Min Min is an uninhabited outback locality in the Shire of Boulia, Queensland, Australia.[2] The locality is most notable for the Min Min light, an unexplained aerial phenomenon reported throughout Australia's outback that was first observed by Europeans at Min Min (the phenomenon was known to Indigenous people prior to European settlement). The settlement is now a ghost town. In the 2021 census, Min Min had "no people or a very low population".[1]
