Good mates... a few dollars to get him thru. It means the world when you are at your lowest... the gesture means more than the cash.

And the fact they were to broke to even buy diesel to mine when they gave it to him is just top notch. Dont find many people like that now days unfortunately.

Never bought a Ford since and never will again... And frig mate, never mind a better mouse trap, you guys need a better fly trap.

Try a black light after dark, opal shines under black light and you may get some good stuff from the tailings

@covodex516 3 жыл бұрын

doesn't really help them with the stuff they're finding tho, I believe. They always have to crack open some stones to find opal, so the UV lights would help them spot opal thats just laying there, but not with the question which stones they have to crack open, and thats their main issue.

@1flash3571 3 жыл бұрын

These are BOULDER OPALS. Opals are HIDDEN inside the Stones. Bit different than the other opals.
