Puts an end to the myth that Hargraves was the discoverer of gold in Australia. In 1847 mineralogist William Tipple Smith discovered payable gold in rugged hill country near Bathurst NSW and reported his find to the government. The government and Hargraves were so efficient in the destruction of Smith that the true story has remained untold for almost 140 years.
