Almost two thousand litres of GBL, known as Fantasy or liquid ecstasy, has been confiscated following a six-month long Police and Customs operation.
Four men aged between 38 and 75 have been taken into custody, and will appear in court next month on a range of significant drug charges.
Detective Inspector Darrin Thomson says the drugs had a 14-million dollar street value, and would have supplied more than a million doses.
As part of a joint operation, Customs also intercepted more than 10 kilograms of methamphetamine.
