[QUOTE="MegsyB007, post: 459374, member: 13534"] I love this thread! My grandfather was an opal miner and I've always had an interest in it. Fell in love with black opal when I saw his spectacular one for the first time - awesome red flash in it! Watching the last video (4) did anyone else see the line of 'flash' at 1:56? I'd love to know if there was something there! It flashed like a neon sign - try here!! Then again, it might just be potch... Ahh the joys and heartache of opal mining... You have to be dedicated and have the perseverance of... whatever has a heap of perseverance! Best of luck mate! Keep those videos coming - they're great! Would love to see some of the opal coming out of it - show us the colour!! :D Cheers, :beer: Megsy [/QUOTE]
