Edjudina Station operates as a sheep grazing leasehold situated within the Edjudina Land District of Western Australia. Positioned roughly south of Laverton and northeast of Kalgoorlie, it lies in the Goldfields-Esperance area and shares its boundary with Yundamindera Station.
Mining activities at Edjudina Consolidated Gold Mines Ltd commenced in 1937 but were soon discontinued due to unfavorable gold market trends.
The land is traditionally owned by the Wongatha and Maduwongga Indigenous groups.
Founded in 1892 by Watt Newland, Edjudina was one of the earliest pastoral leases established in the goldfields region, initially stocked with sheep. In 1921, Newland sold the property, which then spanned , to the Wilkie brothers for a "highly satisfactory price." Subsequently, the Wilkies transferred ownership to James Withnell for £21,000. In 1925, Edward Hawker—a distinguished sheep breeder—acquired the station for £49,000, setting a record price in the eastern Murchison area; at that time, it supported a stock of 7,000 sheep and 1,200 cattle.
By 1934, E. W. Hawker and his sons managed approximately 25,000 sheep on the property. Sheep numbers were recorded at 12,500 in 1948. By 1952, under owner J. Maund's management, the station maintained roughly , with about 16,000 sheep.
In 2012, Edjudina experienced its most significant rainfall in over a decade—receiving within a single day—attributed to the remnants of Cyclone Lua.
