Smith's Carnotite Mine; Radium Hill
A uranium mine. Started in 1906, abandoned in 1961. Subsequently, underwent rehabilitation work.
Type locality of davidite (later renamed to davidite-(La) to indicate its dominant REE).
Located around 110 km south-west of Broken Hill and 460 km north-east of Adelaide.
The site originally known as Smith's Carnotite Mine, later named Radium Hill by Prof Douglas Mawson. This mine was Australia's first uranium mine.
From 1981 to 1998 it was a low-level radioactive waste repository.
Hosted by high-grade granitic gneisses and schists of the Precambrian Willyama Complex.
Although not renowned for well-crystallised minerals, in the late 1950s during the sinking of the 3800N underlay shaft, a well-defined cavity was intersected containing crystallised apatite, calcite and minor zeolites, pyrite, and chalcopyrite. The cavity was intersected while boring out the face some 30 feet (9.14 m) below the No. 3 Level (approximately 280 feet (85.34 m) vertically below the surface). The cavity was more or less vertical, about 1 foot (ca. 30 cm) wide, 5 feet (1.52 m) long and 4 feet (1.22 m) high. The apatite crystals were typical flat-ended hexagonal prisms and were up to 1 inch (2.54 cm) across on the basal pinacoid. The apatite crystals were donated to the collection of the Geology Department, University of Adelaide. (Australian Amateur Mineralogist, Sept. 1957).
