	Colorado Gold Rush - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is still considered to be the largest gold rush in American history, and an intricate part of the history of the country in general.
		The Colorado Gold Rush was the boom in the prospecting and mining of gold in present-day Colorado in the United States that began in 1859 (when the land was still in the Kansas Territory) and lasted throughout the early 1860s.
		The railroad lines built to haul gold from the mountains were a major part in creating the economic base of the region in the following decades, especially as Colorado experienced a companion mining boom in 1879 with the Colorado Silver Boom.
