Totley Township, Heritage mining site in Charters Towers Region, Australia.

Totley Township is a mining site where industrial infrastructure remains scattered across a 50-meter square area in Queensland's mining region. Visible features include a steel headframe, an engine shed, and foundations where machinery once stood.

Totley Township grew from a silver-lead discovery near Ravenswood in early 1880. Richard King opened the first silver mine in 1881–1882 and floated the Ravenswood Silver Mining Company Limited in Sydney in June 1882 with £60,000 capital. The Great Extended Ravenswood Mining Company sank a shaft to 209 metres, but its works closed in 1890. Percy Kean Jnr. re-equipped the mine from 1947 to 1949, and Silver Horizons worked it briefly in 1964 before abandoning it.

The settlement streets were surveyed and named to honor the King family, who shaped mining operations in the region for decades. This choice reflects how local mining families influenced the development and identity of the community.

Visitors should approach the site carefully as historical mine shafts and structural remains can present hazards to those walking around. Exploring from the edges and staying alert to uneven ground and open structures will help ensure a safer visit.

The steel headframe at the Great Extended shaft was not built in the 1880s: Percy Kean Jnr. bought the plant from the Louisa mine on the Palmer River goldfields and had it erected by 1949, along with a Vickers generator and a 220 h.p. MAN diesel engine. Most of this machinery still stands on site.
