Major "Strikes" in the California Gold RushIn 1852 the take for the year was $80 million ($1.9 billion in 2005 dollars).
1. Sutter's Mill/Coloma Jan. 24, 1848James Marshall kicked off the California gold rush when he spotted some pea-sized bits of gold in a mill raceway. The news brought thousands of prospectors to the area, but neither Marshall nor his employer John Sutter prospered from the find.
8. Comstock Lode | 1859Comstock Lode | 1859The discovery of silver on the other side of the Sierras in Nevada brought an end to the California gold rush; at its height, about $80 million (some $1.9 billion in 2005 dollars) had been pulled annually from the gold fields, but that figure had fallen by almost half when the Comstock Lode was discovered.
