December 2024. Nukunu Country, South Australia.

            View of Port Pirie's multi-metal smelter, as seen from the boat ramp at nearby Weroona Island (not actually an island except when the rare combination of king tide and storm swell inundate the low lying surroundings). 
"The smelters", as they are known locally, were first built in 1889 and have been the economic lifeblood of the town ever since. The huge chimney in the centre of picture (locally known as "The Stack") is 205 metres in height, and dominates the city's skyline.
