Louis August Samuels was born in Germany. Samuels was involved in the mining industry in Australia and he had mining experience in West Africa. He had knowledge of the mines at the southern end of the field. He was president of the Mine Managers' Association. He believed the flooding was caused by the lack of baling and pumping operations. Earlier he had visited a coal mine in Bohemia to see a Riedler pump at work. It was a new design, very effective, simple in design and reliable. He watched it work. It was 500 metres underground and pushed the water to the surface in a single column. He suggested this type of pump could be adapted to use on the New Chum Reef. Even this suggestion was not the latest technical innovation, but it would be more efficient and less costly than baling. No one took him seriously and continued to remove water by the traditional means. Article is accompanied by a photo of Samuels.bendigo, history, long gully history group, the long gully history group - the mine flooding crisis - new pumping technology suggested, bendigo weekly 9/6/2000, james lerk, louis august samuels, origin of the bendigo saddle reefs and the cause of their golden wealth 1893, bendigo mine managers' association, victoria proprietary company, victoria quartz mine, new chum drainage association, riedler pump, riedler zwangschluss valve, technical school at aix-la-chapelle (achen) -

The remains are located on a Water Reserve managed by Coliban Water. Location: Reservoir Road, Lauriston, Macedon Ranges Shire. The Russell’s Reef Amalgamated Company spent the early part of 1907 in developing the saddle reef. Defects found to exist in the winding gear, consequently the directors decided to obtain a new gear of the first-class type. This has been obtained and placed in position. Advantage was taken by the management of the suspension of underground operations to give the whole of the machinery and boilers at the No 1 shaft a thorough overhaul. It was found that the two boilers that had been in use required some slight repairs. This resulted in a new high pressure boiler which had been purchased some time previously has been built in and put into commission. In 1907 the shaft was 1,260 feet deep, and an average of 30 men were employed. Russell’s Reef Amalgamated , No 2 shaft ( Company was formed c.1891 and appears to have mined more-or-less continuously until 1911) Source: chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://vhd.heritagecouncil.vic.gov.au/places/8099/download-reportRussell's Reef Amalgamated Co.Lauriston Plan forms part of the Margaret Roberts Collection.gold mining, gold, transverse section, lauriston, russell's reef, kyneton -
