    Of course. The mine's business is based mostly on fee digging. It is open to the public each summer, typically from May 15 to Oct. 15. Come visit and try your luck and opal mining skill!

    do people get to keep all of the specimens they mine? also how much is the digging fee?

  • @WinWebWorks
    @WinWebWorks  11 лет назад +9

    Maybe, but typically we only purchase especially interesting or unusual specimens for our collection.

    Great video about the mine. Better than the Cash and Treasures show in my opinion. We call the white stuff "Mother of Opal".

    Wow, when the Universe of the Cosmos that joins in with the deep rooted grounds of Mother Earth; describes Opalized Wood. That is what came to me, from being my first time seeing opalized wood. So uniquely beautiful, thank you for sharing this.

    Do you ever allow the public to dig there?

    Silica gel, not actually a stone.
    Ruby = Ruby coloured stone.
    Opal = Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, Orange etc etc light *refracted* back at you. The colour is in the light, not the material. Like the colour refracting off a butterfly wing or a beatle.
