Kapunda

And I understand the plan is still not specific for exactly where the transmission lines would be replaced and some of the towers, for example, but what would be the area impacted in Corridor 5 compared to where some of the other corridors were?

We're essentially heading south of Kapunda, south of Yedunda, and then across the the range and just slightly north of Dutton and then heading to towards Bundy so it was it's um so from Freeling to Bundy it essentially heads east and then once we're down on the plains in that Sutherlands area it heads north to Bundy so uh whereas the previous uh alignments the other corridors corridor four was which was the previously strongest performing corridor before corridor five was more was closer to Kapunda Yudanda the other three corridors really went up through the the Riverton Saddleworth area then across to Bundy from So the next steps really are to focus on Corridor 5 and try and start thinking about and looking at details around how that might narrow down and become more of a route than a corridor.

So we'll gradually narrow it down.

We'll do that, I guess, working through the details from now onwards.

Huge stories behind that.

But I live in Kapunda, South Australia.

You can probably hear a bit of a Southern American accent.

Yeah.

Love that

... or my mother, I just talk.

[laughs] And if they think I'm the crazy woman in Kapunda, [laughs] so be it.

I don't care.

I mean, even here in South Australia, we have a mine called Burra, which is about 160km from Adelaide.

I have read that between Burra and Kapunda mines, both of whom were copper mines, they were largely responsible for stopping the state from going bankrupt about 180 years ago.

Right, okay.

So you would say that they did have some benefits.

True Hauntings is a frightfully good production.

Kapunda, about 80 kilometers north of Adelaide, is known as Australia's first successful copper mining town.

Established in the 1840s, it quickly became a booming settlement, attracting miners from around the world.

But with prosperity came hardship, and life in Kapunda's mines was brutal.

Poor working conditions, deadly accidents, and exhausted laborers created an atmosphere of suffering.

Some believe this is the root cause of Kapunda's lingering hauntings.

The mines weren't just dangerous, they were deadly.

Many miners lost their lives due to accidents, collapses, and even illnesses caused by the toxic environment.

Thanks for calling in.

Now let's go to Phil in Kapunda because he's actually going to run through Norm Smith medalists from losing teams.

Yeah, enjoying the show.

And you had a caller earlier that mentioned that Frio, we probably focus a little bit much on the last few minutes of a game.

here we go.

Philip from Kapunda.

G'day, Phil.

Yes.
