This mine was a very successful copper mine, which mined over
1,000 tonnes of copper, until 1877, when it flooded. It is situated
twenty-two kilometres from Beltana, a small town which was also
ruined in the flood. Both are now famous ruins. Just a few kilometres
south of Hawker, are the Yourambulla caves. These caves are
filled with marvellous ancient cave paintings. Outside the caves
is a great view of the Flinders Ranges. Other tourist attractions
are the museums which |
preserve
the sacred artefacts of the Adnyamathanha people. |
