    1st Shaft Lookout

    April 19 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C

    This was the 1st shaft dropped in the area for opal discovery back in 1902. Just 120 years later and men still get bitten by Opal Fever and spend their lives in search of the mother load. Many never find more than small change.
    Mullock heaps galore as you can see.
