The neatest, clean mines I have ever seen. Your neighbor knows what he is doing. Much respect sir.

You guys are so blessed to have a neighbor like that. I’d love to be able to go mine some Opal for a few days. Being stuck smack dab in the middle of the USA there’s no chance to do anything like that. That was awesome to watch though, thank you for taking us along.

Great to see the boys in their native environment! We usually chat in the sunshine.. Henceforth and forever more a bit of trace shall be known as 'A bit of Grimshaw' haha, cheers to Steve and Stasi and to you guys for making the video!

How interesting! Not sure id want to go down there but happy to watch on video 😅

Someday! Top of my bucket list to get some Coober Pedy rough Opal!! But no thanks, on going in the hole!! Amazed at what you do!!! Be careful out there!!! Can't wait to see more!!!

How awesome was that! Nothing like I'd ever imagined and something not many would get the chance to see. Thankyou!

good to see i can watch opal mining outside discovery

Awesome guys👍🍻

WoW. I never thought of you as a gold digger Lilly! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 But now I know!! LOL!!! I hope you enjoyed your time underground! I use to do a lot of speiliology when I was younger. So much fun. However, I wouldn't want to be making my living out of it! Great episode! Good to see you both doing everything you can to make this channel so interesting!!! 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍

Wow i’m never been in this channel before, it pop out because i’m watching often opal stuff, but its a well worth watching! Such massive underground working for opal, well done! I can tell you have all good time down there! 😊 I’m hardrock miner, we use drill and blasting because its too hard to use this kind of harvest machine, its do a clean jobs, need just pillars no any roof support, easy as it is!

Watch this space guys.... your channel is about to take off :) Great video :)

you's are the best! very entertaining, very natural!

Well cool, I worked at Mt Isa mines and drove to Opalton...trippy place. Visit lark Quarry dinosaur stampede its is very cool

WOW! what an insight into opal mining looks cool. Did you refine and use any of that opal ? That would also be cool to see !

Coober Pedy is my home town! So cool to see you guys showing it! Interesting to see your reactions to what was normalised for me growing up! Just stumbled across your channel today from your Yorke Peninsula video 😄

Found your channel the other day this episode is of the charts fckn awesome. You guys are fun to watch.

wicked ! congrats on your trip! 🏜️📹🛻🤙😎

Dad the hardest worker in town then 💪💪

Wow, well i've driven through but never new it was like that down there!

I would love to work in a mine like this for a month. Already looked into how to get there, food and shelter. Just worried about transportation and finding a miner willing to let an unexperienced texan work under their wing. Costs are around $5-6k for one month including flights from Austin, Tx airport to Sydney to Coober Pedy. p.s. not worried about making money there just interested in the work and experience in a mining setting.

Amazing!

Great episode 👏

it looks like the whitecliffs of dover down there, whee did all that chalk come from plaster of paris

That would of been an awesome thing to do.

great video

Wow so interesting. Such a hard life and way to earn a living (or not)

🎉

That mine doesn't belong to Ashley. He mines outside of the tunnels. It belongs to a bloke who owns a tour company there. Noble Tours Coober Pedy.

Nice one hello from Lightning Ridge opal miner here

Great job 😮❤, what the name of machine please ?

Great video. Wohereza to buy this tunneling machines?

If them small openings in the ground are the only way into the mines. It makes me think how did they get that digger down into the mine. I know a lot of mines they take all there large equipment down piece by piece and then put them together inside the mine. But i could see some of the parts on that digger would be to big to get down the hole you went down. Unless the hole is bigger than it looks on camera. Plus what had they used on the walls with all the circles all over the walls and roof

How did you get on to that Bloke does he do tours or something?

set up home down there

Way too much squawking right off the hop might wanna change that in the future or not

First mistake..you guys had no safety helmets on..thats asking for death
