About Newlands (Qld)
Newlands is a remote, sparsely populated locality in the Whitsunday Region of the Bowen Basin, situated along the Bowen Developmental Road. The area is historically tied to cattle grazing and coal mining, with the Newlands Coal Mine operating from 1983 until its closure in 2023, and Starvation Creek flowing into the Bowen River through the locality.
