Good antipodean soldier misses the last mine (7)
I believe the answer is:
bonanza
'mine' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'good antipodean soldier misses the last' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'good' could be 'bon' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'bon' is present in the answer.
'last' could be 'z' (last letter of the alphabet) and 'z' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'ana' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bonanza that I've seen before include "Sudden influx of wealth" , "A striking example" , "Spectacular windfall" , "Event creating a sudden increase in wealth" , "Good source of profits" .)
