Cat No.:   AU7017:

To quote from the Preface: The "Resources of the 'Central Area'" has been written in the hope of assisting mining investors to a fuller understanding of the potentialities of the vast auriferous area known as the Bendigo Goldfield, of which the "Central Area" forms but a small part. The information presented was accumulated during my appointment as mining representative of the Bendigo "Independent." In this period of 9 1/2 years, over 1500 inspections were made of the underground workings at all points of the field."
