gidday everyone and what a great site nugget, iv learnt so much reading through the countless posts here. Im new to gold mining however i did mine opal in the 90's for three years, and must say that was the best part of my life. I found $250,000 worth plus a rare fossil, best stone made $8400 and about the size of a thumb nail. Boy it was pretty. But it was the lifestyle that had me, most miners are a cheerful lot and the dream of a big find gets you up in the morning. I got back from my first visit in 15 years to the ridge last week, and nearly pegged a claim! Went down my old holes and dug around reliving my memorys, its amazing how long we live and to make the most of our time. But common sence and old age 47! Sent me home and thinking of something a little ezeyer like gold mining.
So i hope to have a walbanker next week and hit them hills for i hear the call of gold, i used to hear opal once too,
