What minerals are found in Broken Hill NSW?

Silver, Lead, Zinc, Cobalt and Sulphide.

Broken Hill, also known as the “Silver City”, has a rich mining history and was the birthplace of BHP, (The Broken Hill Proprietary Company), one of the largest global mining companies.

By the end of the 19th century, this remote town was one of the largest sources of lead, zinc and silver in the world! This explains why the region has been mined continuously for over 120 years.

Broken Hill was sitting on top of a giant sulphide lode of over 200 million tonnes, including 50 million tonnes of lead and zinc and 20 000 tonnes of silver.

Today, there are two mining operations in Broken Hill, Perilya and CBH Resources (Rasp Mine).
