An old mining centre for a large number of copper mines discovered in 1861 and closing in 1923. Also well known as the southern point of Australia's famous 'Copper Triangle', which was bordered to the north by Kadina and Wallaroo.
The Moonta Mining Co. became the first in Australia to pay out over 1 million pounds in dividends to its shareholders.
Recently mining activities recommenced at two small old mines, the Poona and Wheal Hughes to the north of the original Moonta workings, which were mined by open cut and underground decline in the 1990s. The deposits were small but high grade and mining was completed here in 1995.
The area is most famous for atacamite, cuprite, and chalcopyrite crystals.
Currently under exploration by Adelaide Resources Limited.
