Augustus Jules Luck (de Luc) was an explorer and gold prospector in Western Australia.
Luck is credited with teaching explorer David Wynford Carnegie the bushmanship that enabled him to lead his expedition from Coolgardie to Halls Creek and return (1896–97), a journey of over three thousand miles and thirteen months in the desert which Carnegie describes in his book Spinifex and Sand.
