Etymology
The word 'bonanza' originates from Spanish, where it means 'calm sea' or 'prosperity'. It was first used in the mining industry in the 19th century to describe a rich vein of ore. Over time, the meaning expanded to refer to any sudden increase in wealth or good fortune. The word has since become synonymous with abundance and luck.
