The shire, roughly the region surrounding the former gold mining town of Mount Morgan, covered an area of {{convert|492.0|km2|sqmi|1}}, and existed as a local government entity from 1890 until 2008, when it amalgamated with several other councils to become the Rockhampton Region. HistoryMount Morgan came into being with the discovery of gold in the area in 1882. It was established as the Borough of Mount Morgan on 22 May 1890, becoming the Town of Mount Morgan on 31 March 1903 with the enactment of the Local Authorities Act 1902. On 17 March 1909, the surrounding area, previously part of the Shire of Banana, was incorporated as the Shire of Calliungal, which had its offices in Mount Morgan.[2][3] On 5 November 1931, the two merged to form the Shire of Mount Morgan. On 15 March 2008, under the Local Government (Reform Implementation) Act 2007 passed by the Parliament of Queensland on 10 August 2007, the Shire of Mount Morgan merged with the City of Rockhampton and the Shires of Livingstone and Fitzroy to form the Rockhampton Region.
