    Australia Collection

    After completing his assignment with The Borneo Company, Christopher joined his twin brother George, who by this time had moved to Australia.  During his time living in Australia, Christopher’s primary occupation was working for Queensland Rail as a railway ganger, laying track on the Grafton to Rockhampton line.  Whenever possible, Christopher would spend his spare time with George panning for gold in the New South Wales town of Sofala, mining for opal in Lightning Ridge and in search of sapphire, emerald and ruby in the Queensland outback towns of Anakie, Sapphire and Willows.  Christopher and George enjoyed bountiful finds during their mining expeditions and collected an array of gemstones including diamond, emerald, ruby, sapphire, opal and a wide range of fossilised and semi-fossilised stones.
