- A few mining photos

Safety Harbor, FL - USA

Here are a few photos from my recent trip of the open cut . . . there will be more soon.

The hole is about 60' x 90'. The excavator is sitting about 25' to 30' below the surface and would reach down about another 20' to the opal level. In one of the photos below, you can see where we dug down to an old tunnel. The nice sliced nut came out of this hole.

WOW! What gorgeous polished cabs. YUM! Will you be listing any of them in your online store? I'd love a chance to buy something so nice.
