All Australian children are given an account of the chase for gold in Australia that runs like this: Nobody knew there was gold in Australia, Edward Hammond Hargraves discovered gold in New South Wales in 1851, and then the rushes began.This is false history. The first claim of a 'gold mine' was a fraud in 1788; the first real gold find was in 1824; the first working gold mine was in South Australia in 1843; a shepherd, Hugh M'Gregor regularly sold gold in Sydney in the 1840s; the first gold rush was in Victoria in 1849, but the authorities choked it off; and Hargraves never discovered gold.What Hargraves did was to provoke a gold rush that could not be stopped, by declaring that there was gold over wide area, stretching from the site of the 1824 find to where M'Gregor was collecting gold.This book details all of those matters, and many more, explaining the psychology of gold rushes, the technicalities of finding gold, and the true costs of gold fever. While it mainly deals with the Australian situation, there are many comparisons with overseas situations, from Prague, the Middle East and the Americas: this is a world history with a strong Australian bias.It is also a starting point for scholars, because the sources are meticulously recorded, and at last count, there were 236 web links, because in this increasingly internet-crazy world, people want those links to books and contemporary newspaper accounts.

Leading mining historian Kerby Jackson introduces us to a classic mining publication on the gold mining history of Australia. First published in 1852, it has been unavailable since those days and sheds important light on Australia's gold mining history. Included are rare communications between British agents and the British Crown when gold was first discovered in Australia in 1851. This rare text contains hard to find details on Australia's first mining camps and Britain's early attempts to provide for the orderly regulation of gold mines in that part of the world. Also of interest are hard to find extracts of articles that appeared in the early colonial newspapers that did their best to report on Australia's gold rush as it took place. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As such, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.

From these he can judge for himself. He will find no high-coloured state ments of the wonderful fortune which he has only to put out his hand and take hold off, nor will he find any ingenious array of statistics to prove any particular case; not a figure being used throughout which will not convey practical information, nor any knowingly omitted which will convey it.

This book begins with the geological aspects of gold and its importance to ancient civilisations because of its unique properties.
