	NZRCA: Paddling flooded rivers
		As the river floods, water flows in places that only rarely see water, where rocks are sharp, not worn smooth, where trees grow, banks don't follow a natural water worn shape, and the power and energy of the water increases faster than most people appreciate.
		The Buller, a very big river, which is fed at this gauge point by Nelson Lakes National Park, rises slowly from 40 cumecs to 90 cumecs, and then slowly drops away until the next front arrives.
		The Aorere, which has a smaller catchment in the western ranges of Nelson, rises from its normal 12+ cumecs to 750 cumecs, which is quite a flood in this river.

		This statement could be interpreted as a desire on Mackay's part to conceal from the Poutini Ngai Tahu the fact that gold had been discovered.
		As this spot had always been their home, and on the hill above it in a cave repose the remains of Tuhura and others of their ancestors; nothing could move them to give up this place, which I much regretted, as it enables them to retain the best landing place.

		Sluicing activities were carried out in the Glen Gyle on a small scale from the 1870's but with the formation of the Parapara Hydraulic Sluicing Company with a paid up capital of forty thousand pounds in 1892, a new dimension to the scale of activities commenced in the area.

	MINING AND MINERAL RESOURCES - Gold - 1966 Encyclopaedia of New Zealand
		The first discovery by a European is credited to Charles Ring at Kapanga Stream, Coromandel, in October 1852, but the immediate results of mining and of negotiation with Maori owners were disappointing, and interest decreased temporarily.
		Meanwhile, gold was reported in several South Island localities, and was found in payable quantities in the Aorere River, Nelson, in 1856, and in the Buller River in 1859.
		During the gold rushes of the early sixties, prospectors soon found that “alluvial” gold was widespread, either in existing South Island river valleys (see map), or in the extensive gravel and sand deposits that had been formed by past rivers.
