Abstract: - "Gathering gum was once a major industry in northern New Zealand and the fifth biggest export earner in the country. For Maori and Europeans, it became the gold of the north, providing the funds to set up farms and industry. It is said that much of early Auckland was paid for by kauri gum."--Introduction.
