The miners had to have a miners licence or they would be chased by the troopers (called Joes) or worse. Miners worked in Extremely hot weather and really cold weather they also didn't have modern mining tools like today so all most miners had was a pick and a shovel! Some mines weren't safe to go down at all and collapses happened. When the Eureka battle happened 22 miners were killed and 6 troopers were killed. After the troopers took down the Eureka flag and put blood all over it

Fact: on the right star on the Eureks flag there is a little m by a young girl who helped make the flag.
