Andamooka, 600 kilometers north of Adelaide in South Australia, is designated as a local government area by the Provincial Communities Authority. In the city where numerous opal stones exist, there is a population of approximately 528 people according to 2006 data. The city, whose economy is based on opal mining, is able to provide more jobs thanks to the Olympic Dam, which is a nearby copper and uranium dam.

The city's population is trying to get along with the water trucks coming from Roxby Downs, due to the limited amount of rainfall in the area. With a very dry climate in the city, where rainfall is scarce throughout the year according to Australian standards, the daily average temperature can rise to 40 degrees Celsius in the summer and to 0 degrees Celsius in the winter months.
