Summary

Echunga Sluicing Works on day of opening by the Hon. T. Price, 13 July 1906. During this period the Euchunga Hydraulic Gold Sluicing Company made an attempt to instigate a payable large scale operation by treating the alluvium in bulk. However, this was unsuccessful as the alluvial material was much lower in grade than first epected. The photograph shows Premier Tom Price opening the sluicing works watched by crowds of onlookers
