Acacia leeuweniana, also commonly known as Leeuwen's wattle or Spear Hill wattle, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to a restricted part of the north-west of Western Australia. It is a shapely, inverted con-shaped tree with linear, more or less straight, sometimes sharply pointed phyllodes, spikes of light golden yellow flowers and broadly linear, leathery to crusty or woody, resinous pods.
Leeuwen's wattle is only known from two sites south-west of Marble Bar and south of Port Hedland where it grows in skeletal soil on granite outcrops in the Pilbara bioregion of north-western Western Australia.
