The Wattle Dam Gold Mine is a gold mine located 25 km south west of Kambalda, Western Australia and is owned by Maximus Resources.

It is formerly owned by Ramelius Resources. Ramelius, listed at the Australian Securities Exchange since 2003, discovered Wattle Dam in 2005 and began mining the deposit in 2006.[1]

Ore from Wattle Dam was not treated on site but rather taken to the company's Burbanks Treatment Plant, 8 km south of Coolgardie,[2] near the Burbanks Gold Mine which was owned by Barra Resources Limited. Mining at Wattle Dam ceased in 2012, with the mine in care and maintenance since.
