Hi daluke.
I have no idea what it is but I think you are going to need to provide more info than a photo. Eucs are hard to id without all the details (flowers,fruit,bark, location) so at best you might get a wild guess or a short list.
Can you get more info?

My guess . Eucalyptus melliodora , yellow box with juvenile leaves . Like Squizzy says some more info would narrow it down .

That gives us some more info Daluke but still not enough to give a positive species ID.
It is definitely a Eucalypt of some sort but there are probably several hundred species. to Id the species we need much more info.
The leaves on the new photo appear to be long and thin so I think we can rule out E. meliodora but that still does not get us much closer to which of the other 399 species this one is.
I see the ground is very stony. Many eucs have a limited range so WHERE (which area of Australia) this is growing could give a big clue if it is growing in its natural area. Do you think this tree is growing in its natural area or might they have been planted here (adult trees in straight rows is a giveaway) If you think these might have been planted in this area ID gets much harder.
Are there any mature trees that look the same nearby? Pictures of buds, flowers and seed pods are a big part of ID for eucs. Also bark and leaf shape of mature trees is important.
If you can't give us any of those then ID is almost impossible.
