VISITING "LIGHTNING RIDGE" - Black Opal Town

Remembering my last trip to an amazing isolated town - LIGHTNING RIDGE !!



It took us about 10 hours driving from GOLD COAST CITY and the road was quite smooth ....




Our friend, a black opal miner at the 'sheepyard' demonstrated his skills in mining and his hard-work.
We wish he'll find some good pieces from all the dirt he's dugged...



Hummmm.... 'good try' but sadly there's hardly any QUALITY BLACK OPAL from the whole bucket.




Well, let's see what is available this time and we will have to continue contacting each other, my friend... It's hot, sometimes flooded and there's not much luck this time.

We shall return again soon !!!!
