Old Mining Museum Building
Old Mining Museum Building, Heritage museum building in The Rocks, Sydney, Australia
The Old Mining Museum Building stands as a six-story Federation Warehouse structure with a 61-meter chimney stack near Circular Quay in Sydney.
Constructed between 1902 and 1909 under Walter Liberty Vernon's design, the building initially combined laboratory facilities with mineral and geological collections.
The structure represents early 20th-century educational development through its extensive mineral collections and research spaces that operated for 90 years.
Located at 36-64 George Street, the former museum contains sandstone facades, brick elements, and steel columns, now functioning as commercial office space.
The building features an unfinished lower section originally intended for a power station, while the upper floors served as laboratories and exhibition spaces.
