Great Extended Reef 50 0 0 o 12 0 30 o .0 I have the honor to state, that during the past quarter mining operations in this divislOn have been prosecuted with more than ordinary vigor, in consequence of the unu8ually large yields of gold from our principal claims. An impetus has al80 been given to speculation by most of the well.established companies dividing their shares in serips of say from forty to sixty scrips to a share, thUB enabling many persons of small capital to make investments which heretofore were beyond their means. Since my last report, the Band of Hope Company have obtained 8,282 OZ8. of gold from the gutter immediately south of the Great Extended workings. They have paid in dividends £24,000, giving £7 lOs. per share or scrip, on 3,200 scrips. The yield from the Koh-i-noor Company, Golden Point Lead, has also been very good, the amount of gold obtained being 6,537 ozs., value for £24,543, of which £15,600 have been paid in dividends, giving £390 per share on forty shares. The Great Extended Company's yield has been tolerably good, being 3,036. ozs., which allowed of dividends to the amount of £126 per 80th share being paid during the quarter. This company in their alluvial researches some time back: strnck a quartz reef, from which fifty tons of stone have been crnshed, . yielding an average of 12 dwts. to the ton. The company are now driving to cut thc,reef at a deeper level; after doing which they propose, if it be equally rich at the point of crossing with that already tested, working it on an extensive scale., , The Cosmopolitan Company's returns for the quarter are as follow:-Yield of gold, 1,477 ozs. 15 dwts. ; disbursed in dividends to the amount of £99 ppr 42nd share, current expenses, and a balance carried to the reserve fund account. '. The Spes Bona Company, Golden Point Lead, have strnck a tributary gutter of the Golden Point, apparently flowing from a north-westerly direction, and joining the main lead in the ground formerly worked by the Homeward Bound Company, which the discoverers are now reworking. The Albion Company, Frenchman's Lea4, continue working, but with indifferent success, their receipts for ,the past quarter being 1,199 ozs., allowing of two dividends of £15 and £10 respectively being ~aid. .- The Hand-in-Hand' Company's drives have been swamped out for several weeks by a rush of water from the drift above the Republican gutter, which it is believed was accidentally tapped. Several members of the Great Republic Company, whose claim was bought lately by the Royal Saxon Company, have reorganised, and repurchased that portion of the old company's claim containing the Inkermann Lead, a large extent of which has never been efficiently worked, and which the new company (Ascot Company) are satisfie(i Will pay for reworking. " The sinking of the Royal Saxon Company's shaft progresses steadily. The Ballarat Extension Company, Dead Horse Lead, have, for several months, been working in the gutter, with but indifferent resUlts. This was caused, not by the poorness of the washdirt, but from their not having drives sufficiently extended to allow of any large quantity of washdirt being obtained. Up till the present time, they have been working with but one puddlin/! machine; but from the speed with which the laying qualities of the claim are now being developed, it has been found necessary to erect a secon machine, which it is anticipated will have a great effect in increasing the returns. At'Sago and Bunker's Hills, matters remain in the same state as mentioned in my last report, all spirit of enterprise having seemingly deserted those localities. A fair prospect has been obtained from the Sailor's Gully Lead by the Carpentaria Company, but nothing positive as to the real value of the gutter has yet been proved. With the exception of that already referred "to in my remarks concernin$ the Great Extended Company. there are no quartz :workings being earried on in this division on which to report. No.2 DIVISION.

    NORTH WEST VICTORIA HISTORIC MINING PLOTS (DUNOLLY, HEATHCOTE, MALDON AND RUSHWORTH) 1850-1980 Historic Notes David Bannear Heritage Victoria CONTENTS: Dunolly 3 Heathcote 48 Maldon 177 Rushworth 268 DUNOLLY GENERAL HISTORY PHASE ONE 1853/55: The Moliagul Police Camp had been down at the bottom end of Commissioners Gully near Burnt Creek from January 1853 until June 1855. This camp included a Sub Inspector, two Sergeants, a Corporal, six mounted and twelve-foot Constables, a Postmaster, Clerk and Tent Keeper. For a while this was the headquarters for the entire Mining District. 1 1853 Moliagul: Opened in 1853 along with Surface Gully. Their richness influenced the moving of the settlement from Commissioners Gully to where the township is now. 2 1853: Burnt Creek, the creek itself, was so-called before gold digging started, but Burnt Creek goldfield, situated about two miles south of Dunolly, started with the discovery of gold early in 1853, and at a rush later that year ... Between August and October 1853 the Commissioners’ Camp at Jones Creek was shifted to Burnt Creek, where there had been a rush ... By April 1854 there had been an increase in population at Burnt Creek, and there were 400 diggers there in July. Digging was going on in Quaker’s Gully and two large nuggets were found there in 1854, by October there were 900 on the rush, and the Bet Bet reef was discovered. By November 1854 the gold workings extended three miles from Bet Bet to Burnt Creek and a Commissioners’ Camp was started at Bet Bet, near where Grant’s hotel was later.

  • 6. Co-Habitation
    6. Co-habitation Historical records relating to the alluvial gold mining period, predominantly from the 1850s, implicitly convey a degree of co-habitation between Aboriginal and non-Indigenous people. In his reminiscences, DJ Ross provides a representative example of influential early bush life on a squatting station (the first wave of dispossessors): ‘Born on a sheep station my earliest recollections are in connection with blackfellows, bushrangers and shearers’. All across Victoria’s gold mining districts Aboriginal men, women and children came into contact with non-Indigenous men and a few women and children. The degree of close contact between the races was variable, and differed in nature from friendliness to outright hostility. Relationships were complex, varying not only geographically but rapidly changing over time as one rush was superseded by another rush and extremely large heterogeneous and transient populations waxed and waned across the region. Aboriginal voices A belief amongst Victorian Aboriginal people in claiming certain non-Indigenous people as resuscitated clanspeople continued during the gold rush period. Samuel Clutterbuck recounted being instructed on this subject: ‘I told him of poor Wight’s death. Aha! Said he [Murray, an Aboriginal] “Mr Wight, quamby [stay or sleep] alonga this, (pointing to ground) come up black fellow, bye and bye.” This is their tradition of the final state of white men and vice versa of their own people’. Clutterbuck further related another instance of a very dark skinned squatter ‘who was suddenly embraced on one occasion by a black, who in great glee exclaimed “Brother belonging to mine, I believe quamby a long time ago on Murray”’.

  • Parish and Township Plan Numbers
    Parish and Township plan numbers This is a complete list of Victorian parishes and townships, together with plan numbers assigned by the Victorian Department of Crown Lands and Survey at some point between 1950 and 1970. The list has been reproduced from the Vicmap Reference Tables on the Department of Sustainability and Environment's land information website. Browse the list or use a keyword search to identify the plan number/s for a location. The plans are listed alphabetically. Townships and parishes are inter-sorted on the list. Some entries refer to locations within parishes or townships; these entries may be duplicated. The plan number can be used to locate copies of plans that PROV holds in the series VPRS 16171 Regional Land Office Plans Digitised Reference Set. For example, using the Search within a Series page on the PROV online catalogue with series number '16171' and the text '5030' will return the specific plans relating to the township of Ballarat. In this case, searching for 'Ballaarat' by name will return al the plans in the Ballarat land district, covering much of central and western Victoria. PROV does not hold copies of plans for the locations highlighted in pale yellow below. In most cases this is because parish-level plans were not created for areas such as national parks, where there were few land transactions to record. Plans showing these locations can be downloaded from the landata website under the section 'Central Plan Office Records'. 5001 Township of Aberfeldy 2016 Parish of Angora 2001 Parish of Acheron 2017
