The Black Hills Expedition was a United States Army expedition in 1874 led by Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer that set out on July 2, 1874 from modern day Bismarck, North Dakota, which was then Fort Abraham Lincoln in the Dakota Territory, with orders to travel to the previously uncharted Black Hills of South Dakota. Its mission was to look for suitable locations for a fort, find a route to the southwest, and to investigate the possibility of gold mining. Custer and his unit, the 7th Cavalry, arrived in the Black Hills on July 22, 1874, with orders to return by August 30.

  • L'expédition des Black Hills, très médiatisée et forte de 1 200 militaires, s'est déroulée en juillet et août 1874, à travers une région inexplorée du Dakota du Nord, aux États-Unis, pour rechercher un passage vers l'ouest, sécuriser l'ensemble de la région pour les lignes de chemin de fer, et surtout trouver des gisements aurifères dans une période de flambée des cours du métal précieux. Un an plus tard, elle a entraîné la Ruée vers l'or dans les collines noires, puis la découverte du plus grand gisement d'or au monde, le Homestake Mining, qui a fait la fortune du milliardaire George Hearst, fondateur du groupe de presse du même nom.
