Three days gouging on Dead Horse Gully sees the pillarbasher pull ahead of the opal miner.. for now!

Three days gouging on Dead Horse Gully sees the pillarbasher pull ahead of the opal miner.. for now!

In this adventure we have the tipper dump moved by the famous outback opal hunter Justin Lang and his mining partner Jared. We fix the wobbly tipper pulley we’ve had for nigh on 30 years, and I head off to Dead Horse to see if I can improve our companies lagging fortunes with some pillarbashing. Its neck and neck between slow and steady earth moving (opal mining) and opportunistic scouting for bits and pieces in old claims (pillarbashing).. Watch to see how this round pans out! #australianopal #cooberpedy #adventure #opal #gemstonejewelry #opalmining #howtoopalmine #cooberpedyopal
