Hvorfor det er verdt å reise dit
Lightning Ridge is the source of black opal, and hearing a working miner describe drives, shafts and the odds involved is the clearest account of why the material is priced as it is.
Før du drar
The site states this is the only fully guided underground opal mine tour in Lightning Ridge and that children must be 12 years or older to go on the mine tour. The sculpture tour and mine tour are sold separately or as a package.
