Minara Station

Minara Station is a pastoral lease that has operated as a cattle station and more recently as a sheep station in Western Australia.

Situated approximately 46 kilometres (29 mi) east of Leonora and 70 kilometres (43 mi) west of Laverton in the Goldfields-Esperance region.

The station was established prior to 1920 when it was running sheep and owned by Messrs Fawcett and Robinson. By 1924 the owners were Fawcett and Venn.

In 1928 Minara was stocked with 12,000 sheep and the shearing shed was being constructed.

The station is currently owned by Minara Resources along with three other nearby properties: Nambi, Yundamindera and Glenorn. Both Minara and Yundamindera were destocked in 2012. By 2016 all four stations are now running a herd of cattle
