Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga – List Entry Report for a Historic Place, List No. 9267. 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Purpose of this report The purpose of this report is to provide evidence to support the inclusion of Earnscleugh Tailings in the New Zealand Heritage List/Rārangi Kōrero as a Category 1 historic place. Summary The Mata-au / Clutha River was a significant ara tawhito for seasonal activities of Māori communities. Consequently traditional, cultural, historical and spiritual sites for Māori are embedded in the landscape through the numerous nohoanga, mahinga kai, pā kāinga and tauraka waka along the length of the awa.1 At Earnscleugh, on the banks of the Mata-au / Clutha River near Alexandra in Otago, mounds of stones and gravel that block out the sky create a desolate landscape that shows the massive scale of gold dredging undertaken during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The Earnscleugh Tailings have outstanding historic, technological and archaeological significance, representing the evolution of mining (and specifically dredging) and its associated technologies from the early 1860s through to the 1960s. In 1862, Miners Horatio Hartley and Christopher Reilly walked away from a beach on the Clutha River / Mata-au with their fortunes made – lodging 1000 ounces of gold with the astonished gold receiver. As thousands of miners followed in their wake and goldfields became worked out, miners looked for new ways to extract gold. Dredging was one of these new technologies. While spoon and bucket dredges worked the Clutha River / Mata-au in the 1860s, it was not until the 1880s when Charles Sew Hoy developed the steam-powered bucket dredge that dredging boomed in New Zealand. Over two hundred dredges mined Otago’s river and old river channels, recovering tens of thousands of ounces of gold, and transforming the landscape. From 1894, the new tailings elevator, installed on the rear of the dredge allowing tailings to be deposited well clear of the dredge, enabled the dredge to float and work its way through dry land carrying its pond with it. The tailings elevator made ‘dry-land’ dredging possible, facilitating dredging on the low terraces next to the Clutha River / Mata-au, like those at Earnscleugh Flat. 1 Kāi Tahu ki Otago, Natural Resource Management Plan 2005, p. 133 https://aukaha.co.nz/wp- content/uploads/2019/08/kai-tahu-ki-otago-natural-resource-mgmt-plan-05.pdf accessed 7 Apr 2020. Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga – List Entry Report for a Historic Place, List No. 9267. 3 Dredges operated on Earnscleugh Flat from the 1890s through to 1963. The scale of the dredging was enormous – these are huge machines, churning through the river gravels, transformed the Flat into an eerie landscape of tailings, a huge snail trail of gravels marking the path of the dredges. Several dredges operated successfully between the Fraser River and Sandy Point: the Earnscleugh No. 1 (1896- 1909), the Earnscleugh No. 2 (1899-1916), the Earnscleugh No. 3 (1903-1923), the Earnscleugh No. 5 (1908-1922) and the Glasgow (1901-1913) operated at Sandy Point. There was a modest revival in the dredging industry as the price of gold rose during the 1930s. The Clutha Dredging Company’s giant dredge, the Alexandra, worked into the 1960s. It was the last dredge operating in Otago. Earnscleugh tailings epitomise the effect of dredging on the landscape. The dredges left behind them a landscape reflecting the different dredging technologies. The value of this landscape was recognised in 1990 when part of the dredge tailings were included in a historic reserve. In 2015, the tailings are alongside the Alexandra riverside walk, provide visitors with insight into the historic operations of these significant dredges.

SUPPORTING INFORMATION 2.1. Historical Information Early History The Mata-au is a significant waterway in the southern Te Wai Pounamu landscape.3 Commencing from the interior lakes; Hāwea, Wanaka and Whakatipu wai māori - the Mata- au meanders its way in a south-easterly direction over 338 kilometres to the coast. Weaving its way from mountains to the sea, the river has been used as an ara tawhito by successive iwi from the earliest, Hāwea and Rapuwai; then Waitaha and Kāti Māmoe before Kāi Tahu became the dominant iwi in the late 18th century.4 Battle sites are situated along the Mata- au as were consequential urupā.

Interim report for: 1115 Sports Fishery Research Investigation of the Mawheraiti River & the New River Brown Trout Fisheries July 2020 Baylee Kersten, Fish & Game Officer, July 2020 Spawning/recruitment success of Brown Trout on the West Coast Introduction The Mawheraiti River and New River have been identified as locations requiring research. The Mawheraiti River is a river that requires attention as the brown trout population has undergone significant decreases and increases over the years observed through drift diving and angler reports. To ensure the fishery is correctly managed and protected it is essential we understand these fluctuations and try to mitigate the significant drops in the brown trout population. Little is known about the New River but given its proximity to Greymouth, it would be beneficial for local licence holders for it to be a thriving fishery. What is limiting the fishery will hopefully be identified by the work carried out in this project but obtaining a better understanding of the fishery is ensured. The Mawheraiti or Little Grey River is a tributary of the Grey River. Its catchment incorporates tributaries from the Inland mountainous flanks of the Paparoa Ranges and the rolling hills of the Reefton and Ikamatua areas.
