What is the historical background of Cinese workers on Australian gold mines, and how does gold production compare to production in other countries?
Do you have any statistics on gold production by country during that time period?
According to historical data, South Africa was the largest producer of gold during the late 1800s and early 1900s, followed by the United States, Canada, and Australia. China was not a significant producer of gold at that time.
