Doolgunna or Doolgunna Station is a pastoral lease and sheep station located in the Mid West region of Western Australia.

It is located approximately {{convert|124|km|mi|0}} north east of Meekatharra and {{convert|263|km|mi|0}} south of Newman. The station occupies an area of approximately {{convert|325000|acre|ha|0}}.[1] The unusual name of the property is Aboriginal in origin but the meaning is not known.[2]

The southern branch of the Gascoyne River rises near the Doolgunna homestead.[3]

Established at some time prior to 1927, Doolgunna was owned by G. J. Howard in 1929.[4] The property was acquired by the Davies family in 1950.[1]

In 2009 Sandfire Resources announced the discovery of a large high grade copper and gold deposit within the station boundaries at the DeGrussa tenement. The mine is powered offgrid by diesel, solar and batteries.[5][6] Other exploration companies such as Great Western Exploration, Ausgold and Thundelarra Exploration were quick to pick up adjoining tenements.[7]
