The first "Pig Iron" was produced in Australia in the late 1840's. Where was this done?

Very close, I'll give you that one Mushmouse. The ore came from the Fitzroy area but iron was smelted in Mittagong in 1848. Your turn.

Cheers thanks Jeff, that took bit 'o research. Okay - Jim Minogue designed the first Nylex Clock in 1961. He was also responsible for the creation of another famous Melbourne female, ( and it wasn't Kylie or Danni ). Who was she?
