Seven men were killed at the Great Extended Hustler's mine disaster on 2nd May 1914 by an explosion of dynamite occurring as the men were waiting at the plat to ascend the mine at the end of their shift. No blame was attached to anyone in the findings of the inquisition. It was unknown what caused the dynamite to explode. This document formed part of the research done at the time of the 100 years commemoration of the mine disaster, held at Hustlers Hill in 2014.

This Environment Effects statement was prepared to support a proposal by Bendigo Gold Associates Pty Ltd. to recover gold from material deposited along Bendigo Creek. It was proposed to recover approximately 800 kg of gold, valued at $15.5 million, as at August 1986 gold prices, over an anticipated project life of 5 years. It was envisaged that the mine site could be progressively restored to a wooded wetland environment which, it was believed, was its original condition prior to the deposition of the material. Document, ninety pages plus appendices and figures, published in November 1987. Information comprised of three parts: 1. summary and review providing a brief outline of the proposal and main issues and impacts 2. investigations describing existing environment and proposal in detail 3. appendices and bibliography Appendices include: vegetation list of study site; habitat value of study area; list of bird species in the Bendigo Whipstick area; map and table of land systems of Campaspe river catchment; geomorphology of Bendigo Creek Valley; regional geology Huntly area; water quality analysis for Bendigo Creek; date describing the depth of the tailings deposit; CIP plant; preliminary geotechnical investigation for tailings dam; tailings dam seepage; rehabilitation; report on impacts of mercury by Sinclair Knight and Partners and acoustic and noise level details.
