Broken Hill Broken Hill, sometimes known as "The Silver City," the "Oasis of the West," and the "Capital of the Outback," is a historically significant boomtown in Australia.
The Barrier Range was discovered in 1844, and the explorer Charles Sturt called it a "Broken Hill" in his journal at the time.
Boundary rider, Charles Rasp, found silver on this fractured slope in 1883.
The "broken hill" that gave rise to the town of Broken Hill was made up of several hills that seemed to have cracks in them. This shattered hill has been dug away and is now non-existent.
Despite being surrounded by desert and located more than 1,100 km (680 mi) west of Sydney, the town features numerous attractions, including the Living Desert Sculptures, as well as noticeable park and garden displays.
Given its long daylight hours, the town has a significant potential for solar electricity.
The Paakantji, Mayyankapa, and Nyiimpaa are the three main Aboriginal language groups in the Broken Hill area.
