You can also fossick at lightning ridge. To be honest, what you're doing is digging through the tailings of actual mines to see if they have missed a bit of opal in the process. A bit of fun but don't get disappointed when you don't find anything. Cheers
Yes, fossiking is a bit of fun and you just never know. The lucky person who found a big piece in the caravan park, would inspire many to try their luck as they pass through. From what we hear, you have more luck finding something at White Cliffs than Lightning Ridge. We guess it’s like lottery, sometimes you are lucky and win, other times not so much.
@@takeitezy9192 I didn't think there was, but I'd love to see someone explore the idea and do an expedition. Dunno how digging random 50 foot deep holes around there would go down legally though 😅 Thanks for the reply mate I appreciate it. 👍
Beautiful buildings at Wilcannia. Great mural at White Cliffs. Could volunteer to help get more empty stubbies to do an extension.
Yep stunning old buildings! I’m sure we could all pitch in and help out with extending the stubbie house!

Is there opal to be found in wilcannia or is that a little too far south?
Hmmm we would suspect not. Wilcannia is still a good little place to visit. Cheers for the watch
