Thunderbird Park sits on the largest deposit of thundereggs in the world. The mineral rich seam that runs through Mount Tamborine was discovered at Thunderbird Park in 1967. Today, the ground at 300m by 50m open-cut mine has an endless supply of thundereggs.
Admission to the mine includes a detailed explanation of how and where to find your thundereggs, a mine safety induction, list of all the tools needed to find your treasures, and a souvenir miner's permit to take home. ENCLOSED FOOTWEAR MUST BE WORN to the mine as this requirement is a condition under Thunderegg Mine's mining license with the Department of Mines. Children should be accompanied by a paying adult.
