  1. The Outback Done by Kalyn Kaufman

  2. What is the Outback? • The outback is an immense, secluded, dry area of Australia. • The expression “the outback” is used to refer to spots that are relatively more secluded than “the bush.”

  3. Outback History • Between 1858 and 1861 Jon McDouall Stuart led six journeys into the outback. • Exploration of the outback was continued in the 1950s when Len Beadell explored, surveyed and built many roads in support of the nuclear weapons test. • Recently in 2006, Anna Hingley was the first woman to make the journey riding a horse.

  4. Mining In The Outback • Mining is one of the other main economic activities in the area, the others being agriculture and tourism. • The stuff you can find when you’re mining in the outback are: iron, aluminum, manganese, uranium ores, and you can also find gold, nickel, iron, lead and zinc ores. • Some major mining areas are Coober Pedy, Lightning Ridge, White Cliffs, Broken Hill, Tennant Cliff, Olympic Dam, and Challenger Mine.

  5. Outback’s Population • Aboriginal homes in the outback areas have not been displaced as they have been in areas of rigorous farming and large cities, in coastal areas. • So a significant proportion of the country's indigenous population lives in the Outback

  6. Outback Terminology • The concept “back” country, which meant, land beyond the settled regions, was in existence in 1800. • The term “outback” was first used in 1869. • It is colloquially said that “the outback” was beyond the black stump. • “The Never-Never” is a term referring to remoter parts of the Australian outback.

  7. Wildlife in the Outback • You will find kangaroos and dingoes, hiding in bushes. • You will see huge flocks budgerigars, cockatoos, corellas, and galahs. • You will see various snakes and lizards all over the roads. • You may also see camels and wild horses called ‘brumbies’, pigs, foxes, cats, and some rabbits.

  8. Touring Sites • Below is a list of touring sites: • Alice Springs, Northern Territory • Birdsville, Queensland • Broken Hill, New South Wales • Coober Pedy, South Australia • Devils Marbles • Kakadu National Park • KataTjuta (The Olgas) • Kings Canyon (Watarrka) • MacDonnell Ranges • Mount Isa, Queensland • Mount Augustus National Park • Tennant Creek, Northern Territory • Willandra Lakes Region
