Think Place
The future has never looked more exciting at Olympic Dam; Australia's largest single underground mine and minerals processing operation. A copper/uranium mine, Olympic Dam is located 560 kilometres north of Adelaide and processes ore through to final, refined products of international standing - all on the one site. Nearby Roxby Downs is a modern, fully-equipped township of around 4,500 people which boasts top-class recreational, civic and educational facilities. This is a great place for young professionals to live and work and make their mark and is also a great place for families, with an excellent focus on lifestyle. Facilities and activities include fully equipped gymnasiums, sporting clubs and competitions (football, cricket, volleyball, indoor soccer, swimming, squash, netball, basketball, tennis, lawn bowls, golf, dirt circuit) and camping. Roxby Downs is situated at the door step of the world famous Wilpena Pound and the magnificent Flinders Ranges
