Following the success of Prospecting for Gold, Idriess wrote to each of the States Mining departments to encourage more detailed guides to encourage both work and wealth during the Great Depression. Here is the Queensland response, with tremendous detail of all areas of Queensland where there be gold-bearing deposits. "I believe that this Guide Book will be valuable to those men who are out prospecting, or who are intending to go out prospecting, and while the information it contains is necessarily in summarised [orm, I think there is sufficient to' provide a useful source of reference both on prospecting and on Mining in Queensland. " said James Stopford, the Secretary to the Mines Department. Rare information for the prospector of today.
* First published during the Depression gold rush of 1932, this features 60 pages of detailed notes on gold finds throughout Queensland. * Review copies, some ABC Radio to promote Australia-wide.
