Here is a few
Kapunda was a keystone in the early development of South Australia. It has the distinction of being the oldest copper mining town in Australia,
About 25 kilometres east from the tin mining town of Herberton, on an unsurfaced road, is the small town of Irvinebank, established in 1882
Kanowna, Western Australia
If you’d visited Kanowna in 1905, you’d have found a bustling town of 15,000 people – mostly miners hoping to strike gold. In a bid to stop people leaving, local priest Father Long lied about finding a gold nugget weighing 100 pounds (45 kg).
Arltunga, Northern Territory
Central Australia’s first official town was at one time larger than Alice Springs although, at its peak, it boasted only 300 residents. This old gold-rush settlement is now a historical reserve with self-guided tours, gold-panning and a slide show.
Ravenswood, Queensland
Although its 100-odd residents will say they’re very much alive, thank you, Ravenswood is a late-19th and early 20th century mining centre frozen in time. The opulent Imperial Hotel even has a set of swinging saloon doors, in true Hollywood
Wild West style.

I cannot enter as I work for jeep, but ravens wood does sound familiar, 10 people will be drawn at the remote dealership who are there, must have cash or be per approved for finance. Clause is I believe you must own it for min. 12 months.... A new trailhawk would be nice, the not that bad

Are you saying that the winners wont know who they are until the draw at the place at the time of pick up ? & that you must have the $10 k with you?
So several 100 could show up & only 10 get a jeep ? Sounds like a reason for a riot !

There is a potential to sell it for 20k more than purchase price.

You obviously have never heard of a place called Kalgoorlie.
