Description |
The lead stacks and cranes in Port Pirie, South Australia which are apart of the smelting industry in the town. The BHP smelter was built in 1889. A smelter in Broken Hill was closed down and all smelting operations were concentrated in Port Pirie. By 1934 Port Pirie had become the biggest lead smelter in the world. Originally established in 1915, the smelter processed lead and zinc ore from Broken Hill. The Port Pirie smelters are now operated by Nyrstar. This image is part of a series of photographs taken by Captain Frank Hurley in 1935. |
