We also have an exploration project at Oak Dam. We mine copper, gold, silver and uranium. Our South Australian operations consist of three primary mine assets, Olympic Dam, Prominent Hill and Carrapateena containing some of the world's most significant deposits of copper, gold and uranium.

This one's for the history buffs 📖

Before there was a mine at Broken Hill, there was a rock... and a trip to Adelaide.

More than 140 years ago, BHP co-founder Charles Rasp sent some of the very first samples from what would become the world-famous Broken Hill orebody to Adelaide for testing.

Those samples were taken to Adelaide, helping confirm the discovery that would eventually lead to the creation of BHP.

Safe to say, the results 'rocked' 👏🏼👷🏼

Ever wanted to buy Olympic Dam? 👀
Now’s your chance.
Well… sort of.

The new Royal Flying Doctor Service SA/NT Special Edition Monopoly Board is here, featuring Olympic Dam, Carrapateena, Prominent Hill and Oak Dam.

Better yet, every board sold helps support the amazing work of the Royal Flying Doctor Service.

Who needs Mayfair when you can own a copper province? 🎲🧡

Get yours before someone else buys all the mines!

Behind every person at Prominent Hill is a support crew cheering them on at home 👏🏼

That’s why we love Family Day!

Recently, we welcomed family members to site to experience a little of what life at Prominent Hill is all about.

From tours and activities to plenty of questions and laughs along the way, it was a great chance to share our workplace with the people who make it all possible 🧡

The Olympic Dam Tavern understood the assignment👏

Digital darts? ✅
Pool and table tennis? ✅
Big screens for the footy? ✅

The newly upgraded Tavern is giving residents more ways to relax, connect and unwind after a shift. Safe to say it’s quickly becoming one of the most popular spots in the village🍻⛳🎯🎱

A massive shout out to ESS Compass Group Aus, Delta FM, Olympic Dam Villages and Ahrens Group for bringing the space to life.

🏗️ More rooms, more space, more progress at Olympic Dam!

We’ve hit a big milestone at Olympic Dam South - our newest 1,600 room village – is over halfway to completion 👏

Over the last three weeks, 111 modules (444 rooms) rolled onto site.
Built locally by Fleetwood Australia, these modular buildings are helping us gear up for our first major shutdown in six years.
