California Gold Rush The gold rush began on January 24, 1848 when gold was discovered at Sutter Mill in Colona, California. News of the discovery brought 300,000 people to California. 50% by sea (Latin America, China, Australia and Europe) and 50% by land (Eastern/Midwest U.S.)

Effects of the Gold Rush Gold worth billions of dollars in today’s money was discovered. The majority of people returned home with nothing. Intense gold mining caused environmental damage. Asian-Americans and Native-Americans were forced off of their land. California grew from a small settlement to a huge state. Officially became a state in 1850.
