One of the great benefits of a gold rush is that any people start to not only take gold but they also use the Natural Resources like going fishing, also it improves Australia's tourists and Immigration sites!
The Governments of New South Wales and Victoria were major beneficiaries from the gold rush as the discovery of gold brought more wealth to their states. As gold was found in other states, they too benefitted. In Queensland, the town of Gympie (where the first major gold strike of Qld was made) is sometimes referred to as "the town that saved Queensland". The traders on the goldfields benefitted in a major way. They discovered very early on that they could charge exorbitant prices for their goods, because diggers were unwilling to leave their diggings to travel to the major cities for supplies. Chinese immigrants who came purely for the gold benefitted also. The Chinese were very hardworking, and often more successful than others on the goldfields. Some of these immigrants simply took their gold back to China with them, but otehrs stayed in Australia and built up businesses in the towns that sprang up on the goldfields. Aborigines were not affected badly either. Many of them took the opportunity to offer their services as stockmen, shearers, rouseabouts, etc on farm when the men abandoned the land for the goldfields.
Entrepreneurs are those people who see opportunity and act on it where others may not. In the goldrushes, certain individuals would set up businesses where they could see a market. Because they tended to have a monopoly on the market, they were able to hike up prices as much as possible. People would rather pay excessive prices than leave their gold claims to stock up on supplies in the city, where prices were cheaper. This was one way in which entrepreneurs could benefit.

There are several, but a very good one is Columbia State Park in northern Ca. This is a preserved gold rush town. The park offers gold panning, a museum, and shops with people dresses in period. They also have events to highlight the era. Several movies have been filmed there. High Noon used it and so did one of the Back to the Future movie. In the area is also other towns settled in the gold rush. The entire area is worth a visit.
