The bore supplying it reached a depth of 808 metres, with water emerging at a steamy 84°C! Today, Thargomindah remains the hub of the Bulloo Shire — Queensland’s third largest shire, co

Did you know Thargomindah was the first town in Australia, and third in the world, to produce hydro-electric power for street lighting by using the water pressure from the Artesian Basin? It was also the first town to have reticulated water in Australia. In 1891 drilling commenced on a bore to supply the town with water, and in 1893 a good supply was struck at a depth of 2650ft (808mtrs) with the water coming from the bore at a temperature of 84°C (182°F). The water is forced out under pressure.
