  • South Australia's National Parks Guide
    SOUTH AUSTRALIA’S NATIONAL PARKS GUIDE Explore some of South Australia’s most inspirational places INTRODUCTION Generations of South Australians and visitors to our State cherish memories of our national parks. From camping with family and friends in the iconic Flinders Ranges, picnicking at popular Adelaide parks such as Belair National Park or fishing and swimming along our long and winding coast, there are countless opportunities to connect with nature and discover landscapes of both natural and cultural significance. South Australia’s parks make an important contribution to the economic development of the State through nature- based tourism, recreation and biodiversity. They also contribute to the healthy lifestyles we as a community enjoy and they are cornerstones of our efforts to conserve South Australia’s native plants and animals. In recognition of the importance of our parks, the Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources is enhancing experiences for visitors, such as improving park infrastructure and providing opportunities for volunteers to contribute to conservation efforts. It is important that we all continue to celebrate South Australia’s parks and recognise the contribution that people make to conservation. Helping achieve that vision is the fun part – all you need to do is visit a park and take advantage of all it has to offer.

  • Shas of SA: Burra Smelts Historic Site
    Burra Smelts Historic Site Smelts Road, Burra SAHR 10989 – confirmed as a State Heritage Pl ace 8 November 1984 The Burra Smelts Historic Site is a distinct region within the Burra State Heritage Area, and is a State Heritage Place entered in the South Australian Heritage Register. It is located adjacent to, but across the creek from, the Burra Mines Historic Site, and encompasses structures, buildings and ruins of the Burra Smelting Works. It is historically significant, representing an industry that was integral to Burra's copper mining past, and one of the earliest major smelting works established in South Australia. The smelting works was established in 1849 when the South siSmelts te from mine lookout Australian Mining Association leased an area, on the eastern side of Burra Creek, to the Patent Copper Company (later the English and Australian Copper Company). Initially the copper ore had been transported to Swansea, Wales, for smelting, and later to Yatala in South Australia, but neither of these situations solved the problem of carting the unprocessed ore over long distances on unmarked roads and dirt tracks. During 1848, before the smelter was established at Burra, it is estimated that at least 1 200 bullock carts were on the road, each carrying two-and-a-half tons of ore. By mid-June of 1849 the smelting works was completed, and six large furnaces were ready to fire. Welsh and German smelters were brought in to work the smelting works and added a multi• cultural mix to Burra's predominantly Cornish mining population. By 1851 more than 1 000 men were employed at the smelting works, which had 16 furnaces in operation, using about 150 tons of wood daily, cut from the Murray scrub to the east of town.

  • Shipwrecks: Images and Perceptions of Nineteenth Century Maritime Disasters
    4 Shipwrecks: Images and Perceptions of Nineteenth Century Maritime Disasters Mark Staniforth In the nineteenth century the long sea voyage across thousands of miles of open ocean to Australia was a step into the unknown. International migration at this time usually involved travel by sea, as it had in previous centuries. Ships were the primary long distance transportation method and the movement of passengers was one of their most important functions. It has been estimated that more than 1.6 million immigrants travelled to Australia by ship between 1788 and 1900, nearly half of these people were assisted immigrants of one type or another and they came primarily from Great Britain with smaller numbers from Europe (Barrie 1989:121). In the popular imagination the ocean represented hazard and uncertainty - an alien environment in which the possibility of shipwreck loomed large. Passengers felt themselves to be at the mercy of the elements and being directly exposed to the extremes of the weather in a moving structure was a new and disconcerting experience. This fear of shipwreck can be seen in a letter from P. Harnett to his brother from Cape Town in 1832 who writes that: 'you and the family must have been frequently tormented by anxious hopes and fears of my safety or probably have heard that the vessel was wrecked and as a matter of course that I was lost' (Harnett 1832). In most respects shipwrecks, like other tragedies involving transportation, are civil or 'man made' disasters yet they also exhibit some of the 45 46 Disasters: Images and Contexts characteristics of natural disasters.l These include evoking in the victims feelings of powerlessness in the face of overwhelming natural forces and a timeframe which sometimes extends over a period of hours or even days.
