The gold rush began at Sutter's Mill in Colima, CA. John Marshall discovered gold in the traces of the mill in 1848. Once the gold was discovered the rush was on. A newspaper headline stated "Eureka, Gold Found". The average pay was about 10.00 a month, but a man could make 50.00 a day if he found gold. Within months over 10,000 a day were coming into the area any way they could. Sutter lost in the gold rush. He lost his fortune , mill, and ended up a broke unhappy man. By 1850 CA became a state on Sept. 9, 1850.
The Canadian gold rush primarily occurred in the mid-19th century, with significant events starting in the 1850s. The Fraser River Gold Rush began in 1858, drawing thousands to British Columbia. This was followed by the Cariboo Gold Rush from 1861 to 1863, which further boosted settlement and development in the region.

The two significant gold discoveries that serve as bookends for the gold rush period are the discovery at Sutter's Mill in California in 1848 and the Klondike Gold Rush in the Yukon Territory, which began in 1896. Sutter's Mill marked the beginning of the California Gold Rush, attracting hundreds of thousands to the West. The Klondike discovery reignited the gold rush fever towards the end of the 19th century, drawing prospectors to the remote regions of Canada. Together, these events encapsulate the peak of gold rush activity in North America.
