No countries joined the hold rush in Australia, as countries cannot move. The countries stayed exactly where they were. However, there were people from many countries who came to Australia for the goldrushes, which actually began in 1851,not 1855. The Chinese were the most common ethnic group, but many people came from a variety of European countries, such as Italy, Poland, Germany, Norway and Greece, or from the Americas. There were people from Great Britain, New Zealand and even Mozambique.

The gold rush began near Bathurst, New South Wales. However, the real gold rush occurred after gold was found in the Bendigo/Ballarat region of Victoria.

Queensland also experienced a gold rush when gold was found in Gympie, while Western Australia's gold rush came with the discovery of gold in the Coolgardie and Kalgoorlie regions.

That would be Australia.

If the question refers to the country from which most non-Australian prospectors came, the greatest number came from China.
