Angorichina Station
The lease was first taken up by Septimus Boord in 1853.[1] In 1859, the property was visited by the surveyors Selwyn and Goyder and by the Governor of South Australia, Richard MacDonnell. Later the same year a shepherd on Angorichina Station, Robert Blinman, first discovered copper and took out a mining lease which later became the Blinman mine.[2]
Walter Henry McFarlane acquired Angorichina in the early 1920s after disposing of Warrioota Station.[3] In 1941 the Script error: No such module "convert". property was carrying a flock of 38,000 sheep that produced 1300 bales of wool.[4]
since 2021[update]Template:Dated maintenance category (articles)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters"., Angorichina Station was still a working sheep station, covering hills, creek beds, gorges and saltbush. The 1860s-era homestead, Script error: No such module "convert". east of Blinman, also accommodates up to six visitors for an upmarket experience of a Flinders Ranges sheep station.[5]
