Mount Seabrook Talc Mine Located 175 kilometres north-west of Meekatharra, and 1.5 kilometres north north-east of Mount Seabrook. It is the second largest talc mine in Western Australia, after the Three Springs mine.

Discovered in 1965 by prospector M. Lalor, then pegged 1969 by A. Doust. This was later purchased by the Lalor Prospectors Syndicate, then acquired by Westside Mines NL, who opened an exploration pit across 1969 to 1972. Production followed 1973-1984 achieving 230 842 tonnes of talc. The mine was purchased by Thames Mining NL 1986-1987, then Gwalia Minerals NL. The mine is operated at present by Imi Fabi (Aust) Pty Ltd. Nearly all the talc is exported from Geraldton to Europe for high grade applications.
