''Diamonds And Gold In South Africa'' is a book written by Theodore Reunert that provides an in-depth look at the history of the diamond and gold mining industries in South Africa. The book covers the discovery of diamonds in 1867 and the subsequent rush of prospectors to the region known as the Kimberley diamond fields. It also explores the development of the gold mining industry, which began in the 1880s and led to the creation of some of the world’s largest gold mines.The book delves into the economic, political, and social implications of these industries, including the exploitation of African labor and the impact on the environment. It also examines the role of key figures such as Cecil Rhodes and the De Beers mining company in shaping the development of the diamond industry.Reunert draws on a wide range of sources, including government reports, personal accounts, and contemporary newspaper articles, to provide a comprehensive and engaging account of these pivotal industries in South African history. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of mining, colonialism, and the development of modern South Africa.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
