The discovery of precious minerals and the subsequent growth of the Mining industry in Australia have greatly shaped the destiny of the country and its people. It has contributed significantly in the steady progress of the country since the early colonies in Australia.
“Modern” mining began with the discovery of coal by convicts in 1791, giving rise to the coal industry in Australia. Silver and copper were discovered in the 1840’s. However, Lead was the first mineral to be mined in Australia from Glen Osmond hills in Adelaide. This was followed by the mining of Copper at Kapunda, Burra, and the Copper Triangle of South Australia.
In 1851, the discovery of Gold in New South Wales and Victoria ushered in the Gold Rush in Australia. This has left a lasting impact on Victoria and Australia as a whole. It has changed the economic landscape of Victoria by making it Australia’s richest colony and making Melbourne its largest city.
The Gold Rush also brought with it rapid population growth due to high demand for
mining jobs, attracting immigrants from the United Kingdom and other commonwealth states.
Today, a number of large multinational mining companies including BHP Billiton, Newcrest, Rio Tinto, Alcoa, Chalco, Shenhua, Alcan, and Xstrata continue to operate in Australia and provide the bulk of available mining jobs in the country. Overall, the resources sector represents almost 20% of the Australian Stock Exchange market by capitalization, and contributes about 5.6% of Australia's Gross Domestic Product.
