"Champagne Anderson"

Full name: Unknown

Occupation: Prospector

He was a prospector in the Gatooma (now Kadoma) district, a key gold-mining hub in central Rhodesia (Mashonaland). Gatooma grew rapidly after the early 1900s with discoveries around Eiffel Flats and the Cam and Motor Mine area, attracting small-scale claim-holders like Anderson who pegged reefs and sold them on for quick profits.
