Frederick Augustus Morgan

Frederick Augustus Morgan (20 June 1837 – 8 November 1894) was an Australian publican and mining investor,^[1] co-discoverer of the Mount Morgan Mine.^[2]

Early life

Morgan was born in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, spent his boyhood in Bathurst, New South Wales, and commenced life as a digger by joining with his uncle, John Woodward, who made the discovery which led to the Ophir, New South Wales rush, in 1851. After working with success there and at Golden Point, Victoria and Golden Valley, he migrated to Warwick, Queensland, in 1866, and engaged in mining at Thanes' Creek, and tinning at Stanthorpe, and was successful.

Career around Rockhampton

Morgan reached Rockhampton, Queensland, in December 1879, and, after some prospecting, opened the Gallawa reef, near Mount Wheeler, and worked it for some years. He was then joined by his brothers—Thomas Squire Morgan, and Edwin Francis Morgan—and with them formed a prospecting party, which resulted in the discovery of Mount Morgan—the richest gold mine in the world at the time.^[2] Morgan, who was largely interested in pastoral properties, was an Alderman of Rockhampton, and was prominently identified with local affairs in that town.^[2] Morgan was mayor of Rockhampton 1891 to 1893.^[1]

Morgan died in Rockhampton, Queensland, on 8 November 1894, survived by his wife and one son.^[1]

Unit distance graph

Geometric graph with unit edge lengths A unit distance graph with 16 vertices and 40 edges In mathematics, particularly geometric graph theory, a unit distance graph is a graph formed from a collection of points in the Euclidean plane by connecting two points whenever the distance between them is exactly one. To distinguish these graphs from a broader definition that allows some non-adjacent pairs of vertices to be at distance one, they may also be called strict unit distance graphs or faithf...
