Gold Quest Treks End In Tragedy And Big Strike
A tale from Mt Isa to Northern Territory goldfields details two trekking parties seeking fortune. The first party Samuels Hourigan Patterson endured fatal deaths from gunfire, a car crash, and a railway accident. The second, Richards and Shaw, reached Tennant Creek with improvised gear, discovered rich honeycombed ore, and yielded £800 worth of gold with eight tons of ore later hauled. The mine now faces outright purchase by a southern company for £30,000.
