Broken Hill, Yancowinna Co., New South Wales, Australia

StandardDetailedBy ChemistryMineral Photos (557)Site Photos (11)MapsSearch GoogleMineral Report for Region

Famous complex and very large Pb-Zn-(Ag) deposit that has undergone several metamorphic stages. Its richness was the basis of Australia's wealth and prosperity. 300 million metric tons of ore.
There is a vast amount of literature on the deposit and its genesis.

It should be noted that many of the mines now listed as being at Broken Hill (correctly so) are in fact located in the surrounding districts of Broken Hill and may be many kilometres distant from the town of Broken Hill itself. It is only the mines located both in and within a close proximity of the township of Broken Hill that gave rise to Broken Hill's fabulous mineral heritage and which are the subject of texts such as - The Minerals of Broken Hill, Australasian Mining and Smelting Limited, Melbourne, Worner, H. K. and Mitchell, R. W., eds. (1982).
