Excerpt from Famous Gold Nuggets of the World In these days of wonderful gold discoveries one is apt to forget the big finds of the past, which set the world wild with excitement and gave such impetus to mining about half a century ago. This brief account of famous gold nuggets will help to revive the memories of the golden days of Australia and California, and to show how history tends to repeat itself in gold mining as well as in other mundane affairs. The data has been gathered from many sources, involving a large amount of research, which extended over the face of the globe. In procuring this information the compiler has corresponded with some two hundred persons, to many of whom he is indebted for whatever credit may be attached to his efforts. He ventures to believe that the result will be found of deep interest to all concerned in mining and mining matters. For much of the material used the compiler is indebted to the Engineering and Mining Journal and American Mining News, of New York; the Mining and Scientific Press, of San Francisco; Mining Reporter, of Denver; Mining Record, of Colorado Springs; the Australian Mining Standard, of Melbourne; Mining and Metallurgical Journal, Los Angeles, California; ex-United States Mining Commissioner R. W. Raymond, and representative mining engineers residing in all parts of the world. With one exception, no mention is made of nuggets found in South America or Mexico, the compiler having been unable to collect reliable data from these countries, excepting as to their gross gold and silver output.
