What were the Lambing Flat riots?
The Lambing Flat riots began with a major anti-Chinese riot in July 1860 on the goldfields of Lambing Flat (now Young) in central New South Wales. The riots involved violent attacks on the Chinese mining camps and plundering their tents and property. Any Chinese men who we captured had their queues cut off - these were their long plaits, and without them, the Chinese felt they were dishonourable - while some Chinese were actually scalped completely. Around 250 Chinese miners were seriously injured. Later similar riots occurred in other gold fields in the Burrangong region. Six anti-Chinese riots occurred at the Lambing Flat camps over a ten-month period.

How were the Chinese people treated by the European diggers in the goldfields why?
During the gold rushes, the Chinese kept to themselves. They were shunned by Australians because the Chinese were much harder-working, and subsequently tended to find more gold. They were resented for this, and for the fact that Australians just did not understand their language. Australians tended to regard the Chinese as secretive, and btherefore a threat. The Chinese often sent the gold they found back to their own country, and Australians did not appreciate the wealth being sent out of their own country. For this reason, groups of Australians would sometimes turn on the Chinese, injuring and even killing them. The Chinese were often subjected to being scalped, and their possessions wrecked or looted. The goldfields were not safe places for the Chinese - simply because they had a better work ethic.

How were aboriginal people treated on the goldfields?
The Chinese were treated very badly on the Australian goldfields. They were discriminated against for their strange appearance to the Europeans, e.g., Chinese men wore a long plait, known as a queue, which was considered strange and feminine by the European workers. They were also discriminated against because the Chinese were remarkably efficient at finding the gold. In some circumstances after the Europeans left a claim because they could no longer find any gold, the Chinese would repan through the used creek and more than often find left over gold. The Chinese would also go through the discarded mullock heaps, and invariably find more gold. They were hardworking, persistent people, and this angered the European workers. On some occasions, they were driven out by forceful riots, such as those that took ace in Lambing Flat, New South Wales. In these riots, the Chinese had their possessions pounded, and the men were often scalped to remove their queue. The authorities maintained their right to dig and they were often allowed to return, but often these same authorities turned a blind eye to the terrible atrocities being perpetrated upon the Chinese.
