Subject: Re: opal mining


Just came back from a day of opal digging. I didn't get much, but my brother in-law got about 9" (2 in. dia.) limb cast in black opal with nice fire. It was the best find of the day and worth a few hunderd dollars each (2 sections). If everyone hit it big, the owners would be working the mine and not everyone else. The cost at the Royal Peacock was $85 to dig on the bank. We all had a good time and got some small pieces with color, but the work is hard. I recommend it to anyone who likes a bit of work and opals.
