In the southern province of Otago, rivers also carry gold eroded from the basement schist across the landscape. Nineteenth century miners flocked to Otago to dredge, pan, and sluice its lucrative waters.
Today, though, the two provinces are separated by a mountain range, described by University of Otago geologistIn the late 1990s, Craw met up for a drink with his University of Otago colleague biologist. Waters was struggling to explain another unlikely connection between Southland and Otago—a galaxiid species he’d found living on both sides of the drainage divide.
From numerous studies, the team calibrated a “geogenomic clock” that they can now apply to river capture queries around New Zealand. It’s also helped them predict where old, gold-bearing rivers may be buried.
