The Mount Ida Gold Mine is a gold mine located 86 km north-west of Menzies, Western Australia.[1]
Gold was initially encountered on-site in 1895 which led to gold rush and an increase of population in the area.[2]
The mine was formerly owned by Monarch Gold Mining Company Ltd, and went on care and maintenance when Monarch went into administration in June 2008.[3] The mine was subsequently owned by Ora Banda Mining, a successor of Monarch Gold, until sold by the company to Red Dirt Metals in 2021.
