The first official discovery of payable gold near Bathurst, NSW, was made by Edward Hargraves in 1851. Hargraves was assisted by John Lister, a man who had already found gold in the region. Lister led Hargraves directly to where gold was found, at Summerhill Creek, at a site which Hargraves named "Ophir".
it was hard because it was deep underground
AnswerIt was the Gold Rush.1851 marked the start of the Australian goldrush. Gold was found by Edward Hargraves, with a great deal of assistance from John Lister, in the Bathurst region of New Douth Wales, specifically,Ophir. This occurred in New South Wales in May, and a few months later in Victoria, in August.
Edward Hargraves is credited with being the first to officially find gold in Australia. He found gold at Summerhill Creek, at a place he named Ophir, near Bathurst, New South Wales. Although he was led to where gold had already been found by a man named John Lister, Lister was not given the credit.
