Rough.
no they did not have water wells but they did have gold wells
walking, horseback,cart or railway
life in the goldfeilds was very unfair and harsh.
When they hear that gold is being found all over.
There was no reason to. The gold wasn't on government property and was located in the streams and mountains.
gold licenses were made to keep order onto the goldfeilds and to reduce the amount of diggers on the goldfeild.
People on the goldfeilds got their food from a shop that didn't sell very good supplies. The food they got were mutton, flour, tea and rice.
Women on the goldfields coped by supporting their husbands in mining, running businesses like food stalls or laundry services, or working as cooks or entertainers. They formed tight-knit communities, provided mutual support, and often had to endure difficult living conditions. Some women also took on non-traditional roles such as prospecting for gold themselves.
Terms and Conditions is correct.
"Under field conditions" is more idiomatic.
The conditions were BAD!
To what, under which conditions?
