Paramatta is a locality in the Australian state of South Australia located on the Yorke Peninsula on the north-east side of the urban area associated with Moonta about 132 kilometres (82 mi) north-west of the Adelaide city centre.[2][1]

Its boundaries were created in January 1999 for “the long established local name.” The name was derived from the Paramatta Mine. In 2014, land was added to the locality from Warburto to “better align postal delivery and to reflect historical associations.”[1]

As of 2014, land within the locality was zoned for agriculture.[6]

Paramatta is located within the federal division of Grey, the state electoral district of Goyder and the local government area of the District Council of the Copper Coast.[4][3][1]
