[QUOTE="Ineedofcompassion, post: 295614, member: 7754"] Anyone find opals or heard of found in this area? Or nearby? Seen some huge nodules like yowah nuts on an excavation ( and weighing up the possibility of any hidden inclusions) In a sandstone cliff I cracked a few open. Several had hollow cavities, others had a white powder. Others had a metallic ironstone sheen inside. But they do crack off layer by layer. Any input? I'll post some photos when I revisit next year.
