Description

Amby, originally called Amby Creek, is perhaps one of the most relaxing and unassuming towns within the outback region. Amby forms part of the eastern boundary of the outback region and can best be described as where the grain and the grazing belts meet. Amby Quarry, located on the western side of town, is a lava flow of pure basalt ten metres deep, five kilometres wide and sixty-four kilometres long. It is quarried for construction of roads, bridges and dams. Fossils can be found occasionally in the lava.
