Burra, South Australia
Burra is a pastoral centre and historic tourist town in the mid-north of South Australia. It lies east of the Clare Valley in the Bald Hills range, part of the northern Mount Lofty Ranges, and on Burra Creek. The town began as a single company mining township that, by 1851, was a set of townships (company, private and government-owned) collectively known as "The Burra". The Burra mines supplied 89% of South Australia's and 5% of the world's copper for 15 years, and the settlement has been credited (along with the mines at Kapunda) with saving the economy of the struggling new colony of South Australia. The Burra Burra Copper Mine was established in 1848 mining the copper deposit discovered in 1845. Miners and townspeople migrated to Burra primarily from Cornwall, Wales, Scotland and Germany. The mine first closed in 1877, briefly opened again early in the 20th century and for a last time from 1970 to 1981. When the mine was exhausted and closed the population shrank dramatically ...

Djambu Barra Barra
Djambu Barra Barra (also known as Sambo Barra Barra) (1946–2005) was an Indigenous Australian artist based in Ngukurr, in the Northern Territory of Australia. Ngukurr is considered an artistically significant community with many diverse styles and artists, including Barra Barra. Biography Djambu Barra Barra was born around 1946 in Wagilak country near Nilipidgi on the Walker River. He was raised in the Wagilak community without communication with the modern Western world, a unique upbringing compared to the other Ngukurr artists who grew up in contact with Europeans. Barra Barra moved out of the Wagilak community after his entire family was killed. He began traveling throughout Arnhem land, where he learned more about his culture – specifically certain rituals, ceremonies, and stories. Throughout his travels, he learned about a variety of Arnhem land art styles and ceremonial painting in different clans. He was able to carry this information with him and disseminate i ...
