Where Has It Gone In Australian Gold and Wool Boon

A city evening paper questions the fate of about £250 million in gold unearthed in Australia since 1851 with only £30 million remaining. The inquiry broadens to wool worth around £300 million shorn over the period. The writer notes the Azores and cobbler's wife analogies and observes most would not benefit directly.
