A Correct answer
Explanation

Australia contains the Great Artesian Basin, which is one of the largest artesian basin systems in the world, making statement 1 correct. Australia is also a major global producer of wool, accounting for roughly a quarter to nearly one-third of the world's production, making statement 2 correct. Broken Hill is famous for its massive lead, zinc, and silver mineral deposits, not diamond deposits, so statement 3 is incorrect.
