    i just watch justin cut and polish your opal, and i am speechless. its what you would say. it's a whopper! absolutely gorgeous, and i am extremely sad that i can't buy it because i can't afford it. i left a comment on Justin's video saying if i could buy that i would get it set in a Pendant and not ever take it off!!!!
    Lastly, keep digging don't give up i wish i was there to help.

    Don't get hung up on just filming when you find opal. As a sub and viewer I enjoy watching the trials and tribulations. Whether it's making a mess mining for nothing in a video or you manage to find 1 bit.
