Located near Slaughteryard creek which is north of the Tate River and approximately 14kms South-West of Almaden.
Note: The Kitchener Mine was previously shown under Tablelands Region when Mareeba Shire was amalgamated with three other shires (Atherton, Eacham and Herberton) to form the Tablelands Region in 2008.
Mareeba Shire de-amalgamated from the Tablelands Region with effect from 1 January 2014. Accordingly Kitchener Mine should now be shown as being in Mareeba Shire.
