Kapunda Mine Trail

Perry Street, Kapunda SA 5373
The Kapunda Mine Trail is an easy walk of one and a half kilometres and takes about one hour to complete. Interpretive signs explain how the ore was once mined and treated. Kapunda Mine was the first successful commercial metal mine in Australia and together with Burra contributed to the colony's recovery from economic crisis in the early 1840s. A group of miners known as a pare would tender for an area of the exposed ore body and were paid according to the value of ore extracted. The company exercised practically no supervision over the operations and the result was a series of burrows without system or method. Owing to the softness of the white ground, most mining was carried out by pick and shovel without the use of gunpowder. Ore was separated in sorting sheds by hand picking into high grade (prill) and low grade (attle) material....

Kapunda

Kapunda, Kapunda SA 5373
The name Kapunda is believed to have been taken from "Cappie Oonda", an Aboriginal phrase for "water jump out" - probably a spring. The town became the first established mining town in South Australia soon after Captain C.H Bagot discovered copper in 1842. Mining began in 1844 and continued until 1879 when world copper prices fell. Although copper was mined for only a brief period, revenue from its sales saved South Australia from bankruptcy. When the railway was established in 1860, Kapunda became the rural centre for the mid-north of the state. Kapunda has produced many of South Australia's most significant men. Since 1857 and over the following hundred years, 31 of the state's Members of Parliament were either born in Kapunda or had lived in the town at some stage during their lifetime. Four of these men became Premiers of South Australia whilst two went on to become Premiers in Western Australia and Tasmania. Sir Sidney Kidman came to Kapunda in 1870 and became one of Australia's largest landowners. His horse sales at Kapunda were the largest in the world and lived in Kapunda; he became a generous benefactor in the town. His home in Kapunda was called "Eringa" and when he left to live in Adelaide he donated the house to the Education Department. The residence is now the Kapunda High School. Amongst the several well-known pastoralists who lived in the area, the name Dutton stands out. The Dutton family features strongly in the history of the region. During the 1800's, Frederick Dutton was also one of the town's main benefactors and his financial support sustained Dutton Park, the Kapunda Hospital, the Institute, the Show Society and any clubs and groups which would have ceased but for his timely intervention. In 1839 in the area known as "Anlaby", a pastoral station was established and continued to be part of the Dutton family estates until the late 1900's. Today, Kapunda is developing both residentially and industrially, but there still remains that relaxed country atmosphere which is enjoyed by residents and visitors alike. ...

The town flourished during the boom period between the 1840s - 1870s, which developed strong and independent businesses and manufacturing. Visit the Museum (renowned as one of Australia's finest folk museums). Open everyday from 1pm to 4pm Kapunda is a friendly country ideally situated between the Clare and Barossa Valleys.
