As seen in the below photos Delta has been reduced in size considerably since the first photo taken in 2016. The second portion of the week aimed to treat a patch of Coral Cactus, one located approximately 25-kilometers East of Mount Isa named “Delta” and the second site approximately 15-kilometeres down Duchess Road named “Ruth Pearl” (after the nearby mine). The process began last year when a contractor sprayed most of the large spread at various sites. This was part of an ongoing process to rid the area of the mesquite. The aim at this location was to target the weed called Mesquite on the old tailings dam and on the creeks leading into the Cameron River. The week started with a group of eleven camping beside the old town square of Mary Kathleen. During the last week of July they hosted two visiting landcarers from Brisbane who took part in the “Outback Landcare Adventure week”. The Mount Isa Landcare Group (MILG) has been very busy this past month.
