The East Leichhardt Dam is a rock-filled embankment dam built across the East Leichhardt River, located at Mary Kathleen, 25 kilometres (16 mi) east of Mount Isa, in north-western Queensland, Australia. Completed in 1961, the resultant reservoir, Lake Mary Kathleen, was built for the emergency supply of water for the now-closed Mary Kathleen uranium mine. However, Lake Corella was sufficient and the reservoir is now used for recreation purposes, located on private property.
