Hiya All: Sorry I got virused and busy so had not been back for months. My info has always been there at virginvalleyopal dot com. I couldn't really reprint it all here. I don't do a fee dig (rouge cabin) but maybe in the future if I can just get moved. The Gewm show here this last weekend was rainy and mud made digging difficult. I did see a few nice things found. I do hire out as a tour guide for this country specifically as opal teacher or helper.

Some snow too. Got a group of 7 coming today to work with me tomorrow if the fee digs are closed.Royal Peacock Opal Mine http://www.royalpeacock.com 775-941-0374. VISIT THIS WEBSITE!!

"Swordfish Mining is now a limited guided fee dig. I offer mining/prospecting Seminars and claims tours year round also for the time being , but not forever, weather permitting, until sold out and I've got lookers...OK, I'll do limited guided fee digging until my partner and I open a full time commercial operation as Kokopelli Opal. 300 pound daily limit of opal and opalized woods, say 5 or 6 5 gallon buckets for your prepaid 250 a head. Precious opal has been found here. 0 out of 8 found this valuable. Do you? |
