Nice video sandy and thankyou to rod and sandy for having me and spending the time to showing me around see you again soon guys . Lots of Love from Paul
Hey Paul, our pleasure. See you again soon, best mate
That is some of the most beautiful stones I have ever seen! WOW
Thanks Tom. Koroit opal is certainly stunning, best.
Hi Rod, this is Rob, Cybele's friend, and we are here in Joshua Tree watching your video. It's my first time seeing your operation, and of course, she tells me stories of you and I think you are an amazing person. Thanks for all you do for Cybele, and I hope to meet you someday. Your video is awesome, and you guys sure seem like experts. I'd like to visit your operation someday with Cybele.

American here have owned and operated small (very) placer gold mine created by an epithermal spring.
We had at least two inspections a year, one by state and one by feds. When I watch some of your mining techniques and equipment, it gives me the willies . So far We have not seen serious events (Yea), I can't help but wonder what our big brothers in operations and environment would have to say about some of your methods. If you hear the dogs howling in the background it is because of the high pitched screams of one or both to these groups.
For example, when we finish at a mining site it has to be returned back to it's natural state as possible=====including closing/blocking no longer used mine shafts and open pit operations smoothed out and grass planted,even though grass wasn't there before and any roads made impassable.
AS for people working under an operating excavator---OMG
Speaking of the OMG the beauty in these gems will make diamonds hide in shame
Some of the finest Koroit I've even seen!
Thanks Dennis, best
Beautiful material. thanks for sharing
Thanks, I had fun mining it.
@@BoulderOpal The information being shared is priceless. Every little bit helps.
Someday I want to own a piece like one of these! So incredibly beautiful and intricate.
Wow! You can't buy THIS on eBay. Stunning Koroit. I've seen so much garbage, but this is all opal in very hard ironstone. Fabulous.
Love the video Rod. Hope you will do one showing how you work the rock after extraction. Sorry I missed you up in Tucson yesterday but Karen told me about this video and we watched it straight out. Really interesting and you have some beautiful stones. Take care and happy hunting. Bill DeJarnette. Dan says hi also.
What an awesome video Rod! Thank you for sharing this with me!
Beautiful! Nice to see where it is mined and the people doing the hard work to find and preserve it! What is the colorful base stone?
I know this is incredibly late but it's ironstone.
Great vid mate!!

What a way to scar up a landscape. What kind of remediation do you do after mining this land?
If they do it anything like in the US, smooth it out with a dozer and seed it to regrow vegetation.
After filling in the holes and leveling it out, the trees and shrubs grow better there than anywhere else in the region, the regrowth is impressive
Slow down, I cannot get a look at anything you are planning around so fast.
Stop standing underneath that bucket
