Pacific Gold

by Gordon Grimwade



1 Gold brings out the best and the worst in people. In the lands bordering the Pacific Ocean, gold has helped many countries and individuals to prosper. It has also caused destruction and heartache. Through the millennia, strong friendships have bound gold seekers together in the most challenging of environments. But, unfortunately, the lure of gold has also stirred some to uncivilized ruthlessness and aggression.

Not Just California

2 In the 19th century, the west coast of the United States, the freezing isolation of Alaska and Yukon, inland Australia, and the rolling hills of New Zealand have all welcomed thousands of gold seekers. Day after day, they jostled, dug, and suffered as they sought to strike it rich. Some achieved their dreams. Most did not.

3 The search for Pacific gold, however, dates back much farther than those 19th-century gold rushes. Beginning around 1521, Spanish conquistadors pillaged, attacked, and destroyed the Inca and Aztec empires in South and Central America. Using what came to be called "treasure galleons," they carted shiploads of gold to Europe.

4 Half a world away, in the Philippines, gold was used to produce elaborate ornaments long before the Spanish colonized the region in 1565. Elsewhere in the Western Pacific, gold mining was yet to achieve widespread prominence. From the 17th to 20th centuries, the Sado Mine in Japan was a steady source of gold. It is only in recent times that China has become the world's largest gold producer. New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, and Australia had gold tucked away in their lands, but the original inhabitants had little time for digging or processing this yellow metal. That changed dramatically in the mid-19th century. By this time, Europeans had arrived, and they were keen to find gold.

5 In Papua New Guinea, traces of gold were found in pottery in the 1850s. But, it was not until 1888 that gold was reported on the country's Sudest Island. The modest rush that followed attracted around 400 miners. This number, however, pales in comparison with other 19th-century gold discoveries around the Pacific. Still, we must not overlook Papua New Guinea simply because of its humble beginnings. In recent years, it has ranked as the world's 13th largest gold producer.

'Instant' Towns

6 The major gold rushes in the Pacific area started in 1848, when gold was reported in California. Towns grew up almost overnight. Initially, they were a scatter of canvas tents linked by rough, muddy tracks. Few lasted beyond the local gold rushes. San Francisco, however, is a notable exception. It turned from a small settlement into a major city within just a few years.

7 In many newly discovered goldfields, market gardens were developed along fertile river valleys, and wagons would cart supplies to the goldfields from the port towns. Those who discarded their picks and shovels and opened shops or businesses that took wagonloads of supplies to the waiting miners often profited more than those who remained in the field.

8 Such experiences were not specific to the Pacific Northwest. Similar tales are told far across the Pacific. In 1851, gold was first discovered in the Australian state of New South Wales. A few months later, it was discovered further south in Victoria. The result was another rush of gold-hungry hopefuls.

Riches — For the Few

9 In 1861, the rugged hills of New Zealand were also ringing to the sound of miners' picks. Experienced miners, some from the goldfields in the United States and Canada, and "new chums" were soon risking their lives along the rivers of the Otago region of New Zealand's South Island. Canvas tents that afforded some protection in milder climates were discarded in favor of rough-built stone cottages. Once again, however, gold eluded most of those who believed somewhere, sometime they would find riches beyond their wildest dreams.

10 In the 1890s, according to Canadian historians Pierre Berton and Douglas Allen, an "estimated 100,000 people set out for the Klondike [in northwest Canada], 30,000 reached Dawson, half of whom looked for gold, but only 4,000 found any. A few hundred got rich." Not ideal statistics, you must admit.

11 Klondike miners had to trek over 30 miles through ice and snow and cross the notorious Chilkoot Pass, 3500 feet above sea level. Each miner was legally required to be self-sufficient for a year. That meant each miner had to carry about a ton of gear. This was achievable only by ferrying small amounts at a time. It was slow, heavy work at those altitudes and all in the hopes of striking it rich.

The Toughest Conditions

12 Twenty years earlier, government officials in Queensland, Australia, had urged Palmer River miners to be well equipped for their 80-mile trek to the goldfields. Heat, torrential wet-season rain, and fever challenged even the toughest. Those who ignored that advice or were part of the luckless majority soon left the goldfields starving and penniless.

What is the main idea of “Growing Up: Key Moments”?
Unlike our childhood experiences, becoming an adult is difficult and becomes more intense as we get older.


Growing up doesn’t happen overnight; instead, we grow up gradually and experience significant moments in our lives.


Making the wrong choices and decisions during important growing-up momentscan have a negative impact on our adult lives.


In order to learn from our growing-up moments, we need to recognize them as they are happening rather than after the fact.

New Prompt:
Write a multi-paragraph essay about two changes the federal government should make in favor of environmental reforms. Explain the two things you think could make
our environment healthier and whether you think they could be passed as laws.
Support your opinion with effective examples showing the impact of your individual actions externally (close to home and/or on a larger scale). Make sure you AVOID
logical fallacies, meaning that your connections between causes and consequences are carefully considered and sufficiently proven.
Your response should clearly explain and describe at least two options and use details
to show how each choice impacts the environment, close to home, out in the world, or both. To
do a good job you need to convince the reader that what you have to say impacts them in some way. Ultimately, why should your reader care that these choices lead to
these consequences? This means each paragraph should include a choice, the effects of this choice, and the points that show why this information matters to your reader.
You should have at least two body paragraphs, depending on how many choices you plan to discuss, an introduction that is attention-grabbing and reveals your
argument (your thesis goes here), and a conclusion that offers some memorable final thoughts on the connection between individuals and their environments.
In all, you will have at least four paragraphs, depending on the number of personal choices you
include. Each paragraph should have a unique link between it and the one that comes after it.
The order of these points is up to you, but make sure you have placed each paragraph
purposefully and that the body paragraphs show causal relationships (choice causes effect).
Remember that you need to write sound arguments, so you can avoid logical fallacies. Avoid using first person ("I") in your essay.
See the rubric in the original assignment.
