Lisa Govan was last seen on 8 October 1999 in the vicinity of the Foundry Hotel in Kalgoorlie, Western Australia. She was seen by two independent witnesses standing outside the Hotel on Boulder Road. This is the last corroborated sighting of Lisa.
According to reports, Lisa dropped her boyfriend at the time at the Superpit for an evening shift on 7 October 1999 and then she headed to the Safari Nightclub until the early hours. At one point she left in a Taxi with a bald man only to return a short time later. Early on the morning of the 8th of October 1999, Lisa visited the Deroes Outlaw Motorcycle Gang headquarters on Boulder Road next to the Foundry Hotel by invitation.
She stayed there socialising and playing Billiards until later that morning on 8 October 1999 when she was seen outside between 7:15 and 7:30 hours talking on her mobile phone.According to reports, She left the Headquarters of her own accord and was not in a distressed or upset state.
Lisa was of slim build and 155 centimetres tall, with brown hair, blue eyes and a fair complexion. The morning she disappeared she was wearing a short black skirt, a black long-sleeved top, black sandals and a leather choker with a dolphin pendant. She was carrying a black handbag.
A witness provided information to a mobile Police station set up across the road at Bunnings, indicating they had observed Lisa walking in a southerly direction down Boulder Road. A second witness provided information that they had seen Lisa in the carpark of the MacDonald’s restaurant on Boulder Street with two males on motorcycles. Neither witness account has been corroborated to date.
Lisa did not answer her phone, withdraw any monies or contact any family members after this date despite being close to her parents and siblings.
