CHARTERS TOWERS , a
mining
  town of Devonport county, Queensland, Australia, 82 m. by
rail
  S.W. of
Townsville
  and 82o m. direct N.N.W. of
Brisbane

lower
  depths, the deepest

  is obtained from the Burdekin river, some 8 m. distant. The
population
  of the town in 1901 was 5523; but within a 5 M.
radius
  it was 20,976. Charters Towers became a municipality in 1877.
