At 30% they have to find $500,000 worth of rough opal to get their season target of $150,000. After you remove the cost of running those machines there ain't gonna be much left between the two of them. I reckon their getting "raw prawned" by the 70 /30 split.

[@igvtec]

Yeah mate for sure not wrong, I know if I was using my own machines and diesel. I wouldn't be making a deal at 70/30 split. They are getting ripped off.

[@timfagan816]

Fuken aye stingray. I wouldn't even waste my time doing 70% of someone else's work!

[@MrSethkokualani]

I think the claim owners they work for pay for the fuel cost and stuff dont they? I remember an episode where they almost got fired till they got a nice find. The owner wouldn't give them more fuel to work until so.

[@landofahhs_1]

the old saying, "Beggars can't be choosers" comes to mind...at least they are doing what they enjoy doing and that's more than I can say for my 71 years.

[@lesclanton4109]

That 70/30 split seems like a ripoff,they do all the work and spend all that money on diesel fuel and other expenses, and only get 30 percent!!!!!

[@1COMIXMAN]

So wait a sec. They use their own machines, pay for all the break downs parts oil gas and are only getting like 25 percent. What a rip. They aren't getting Jack in money after all the expenses.

Weird seeing Australia so Green, I know the Floods are Catastrophic but the Land surely needed it after so many years of Droughts.

[@lumberjaxe8910]

The floods happen. where they have been for thousands of years. People build there then complain climate change.

Great payday guys...beautiful rocks

[@davidsnyder2000]

Those opal stones were huge…..just massive. The colors looked really cool too. The way the sunlight would reflect off the blue/green colors👍 It’s a shame you have to dig so much to just find a little bit of opal

[@larrykelsey6901]

That little bit of Opals will feed his family. $$$$$$
