Purchasing a $2000 opal mining claim!
There are many ways to secure an opal mine, the most common is to find a bit of ground that you have high hopes for and stake out your claim.
Another common method out on the opal field is to purchase an existing claim off someone who either doesn’t have the time to work it anymore or in the case of this mine, had gotten a little too old to be going up and down the ladder!
The benefits of buying an existing mine is that generally the previous miner can give you a good idea of what the ground is like and if it was producing much opal as well as at which levels.
It also means you can get started right away and continue digging on from where they left off.
Opal mining is always a gamble and you never know what you are going to get!
In our previous KZbin video you will notice I fossicked a lot of good opal in this area and that is the reason we decided to take over this claim.
The set up was pretty brief with some basic equipment our goal was to get digging as soon as possible. We really wanted to recuperate the funds we spent buying this claim right away.
Once we had lowered the gear into the mine we did a lot of pillar bashing and black lighting then we were lucky enough to break onto a small bit of colourful green and blue opal.
I’m confident that once that material is cut it will go along way to paying off this new mine!
Noah and I all in all where pretty stoked with how it turned out.
We unfortunately won’t be back in here digging for a while until we get a hoist or machine in place to move the waste dirt out of the mine.
I hope you all enjoyed the video, noah and I had a lot of fun exploring and mining in this new location.

When I was younger we were working an opal mine at Lighting Ridge. 40+ up top so headed down the shaft and got to the bottom of the ladder only to hear all this rustling in the tunnels. My eyes hadn't adjusted to the dark so my torch did stuff all and I completely crapped myself thinkig someone else was down there with me. Turned out to be frogs sliding down the dirt piles.

I'd love to know how long seasons are, why specific price goals are chosen for a season, a typical yearly earning, how often miners find themselves on the brink of having to quit unless thats just fluff for the cameras. I'm sure I could think of other ideas. Keep up the good work!

The highlight of all of them is the end, when you get an estimate of the value. I think that's the kick and might help you get more viewers. I can also understand that you might not want to share that, and that's fine too. See you in the next one!
