Diggers & Mining. Diggers and miners. After 1861, many new fields were discovered - e.g., Walhalla (1863), Landsborough (1864), Alexandra (1867), Rheola (1868), Turton's Creek (1872; and new diggings were established on some of the older fields - e.g., Cathcart (near Ararat) in 1864, and at Fiddler's Creek (Avoca) in 1868. But these rushes do not belong to the gold era proper. And both before and for many years after 1861, there were scores of small diggings - after 1861, there were scores of small diggings - too numerous to mention - in Victoria. Markings: 16 994:LIF I.
