摘要

在发现金矿之前，克勒克斯多普是一个宁静的村庄，主要依靠运输骑手、猎人和作为贸易中心的农民维持生计。1888 年，关于克勒克斯多普有望发现金矿的传言让这个小镇一夜之间变得热闹非凡。1890 年底，由于采矿方法效率低下和资本过剩，小镇和采矿业的生存受到了威胁。然而，随着一种新的黄金回收工艺的发现和应用，小镇避免了灭顶之灾。

A street called Boom - some glimpses of pioneer Klerksdorp

Before the discovery of gold, Klerksdorp was a peaceful village depending for its existence mainly on transport riders, hunters and farmers who used it as a centre for trade. Rumours of promising gold deposits in Klerksdorp in 1888 changed the town overnight into a hive of activity. Towards the end of 1890 the survival of the town and the mining industry was threatened by inefficient mining methods and overcapitalization. However, ruin was averted when a new process of gold recovery was discovered and applied.
