The Californian scheme, as it has been termed, originated with the well-,known mining capitalist, Geo. Lansell, Esq., of Sandhurst, shortly after his return from a tour through Europe and America. Whilst sojourning in the State of California, Mr. Lansell, who, it is needless to say, possesses a very extensive practical mining knowledge, observed many instances connected with mining and the treatment of auriferous ores, which were there very successfully worked, and which, if introduced here, would, in his opinion, result to the advantage of our miners on Bendigo or elsewhere.
Having come to this conclusion, Mr. Lansell, on the 12th November 1876, communicated with the committee of the Bendigo School of Mines in furtherance of that view," and at the same time very generously offered one-third (on certain conditions) of the total expense it would take to send a qualified delegate to America.
