An industrial city on the west coast of Spencer Gulf, 74 km southwest of Port Augusta, in the southeastern part of South Australia, Australia. It originated in 1902 as a port for shipping iron ore from Iron Monarch as a solvent for lead smelting at Port Pirie, and later became a shipping port for iron ore for the steel industry in New South Wales. It has now developed into a heavy industrial city that not only ships iron ore, but also produces steel, ships, and generators. Located in an arid region, water is supplied from the Murray River via a 374 km pipeline. Population: 25,740 (1991 estimate).
