The Gold Rush started here in 1859, when a prospector struck gold bearing quartz in Gregory Gulch, between Black Hawk and Central City. The fantastic wealth of Gilpin County's 85,000 acres was known as the richest square mile on earth. It is estimated the mines have yielded more than 125 million dollars in metals, since gold was first discovered.
