Summary

Plan of the Mount Barker Special (Mineral) Survey on section 2001, on the boundary of the Hundreds of Kanmantoo and Monarto, shown as subdivided in 1845 into 20 1,000 acre rectangular strips of land. Some of this area yielded copper from 1846 onwards. The areas selected by the South Australian Company have been coloured in green and red; those selected by the Paringa Mining Company have been left uncoloured. (Information under the green coloured areas is mostly illegible. Names of copper mines etc. on the uncoloured areas can be read.) The layout of the townships of Callington (1856), St. Ives (1856), Kanmantoo (1849) and Tavistock (1856) are shown but not named. Ink and watercolour on paper, ink notation, on canvas backing. Scale 1 inch to 20 chains. Signed at bottom right by C.B. Young, surveyor.
