- Treasure, Truth and Trash

at the Comet




Koroit, Queensland, Australia

The adventure of mining and finding beautiful Koroit boulder opal is continuing at the Comet.  We have been working hard and have been smiling thanks to some of the treasure Mother Nature has given to us.

Although the opal has been here, where the Comet now is located, for millions of years, we only recently have become the stewards of this very special patch of ground.  This is our first full season mining at the Comet.  We are learning about the ground and the process.  We are working out many concerns and details relating to issues such as logistics, privacy, safety and security.  As a result of still working through these details, my posts here have been rather simple.  Please pardon my lack of detail.  In the future I hope to share far more.

The posts on this blog may be brief, rambling or poorly written, but they contain the truth and are rather literal.  These posts tend to be neither poetic nor subtle.  Whatever is found on this blog has been written by me, not Wittgenstein or Nostradamus.  There is little, if anything, to be read between the lines of what is written here.  If you insist on reading between the lines, you have my condolences.  You are wasting your time. 

As I mentioned, whatever has been written here on this blog, has been written by me.  This blog has existed for a few years.  Sometimes I may ramble on about my personal information or opinions.  Other times I may share information about the people I interact with, the people I work with or the people I am in partnership with.

If you are confused or have any questions about what you find here, please ask me.  If I have been unclear, have made a typo, misspelled or made a factual or grammatical error, please let me know. 

Please ask before you assume.  Please ask me and get the facts before you jump to any silly conclusions or engage in that foolish and too common activity of gossiping.  Gossip mostly is a waste of time and tends only to consist of little stories, containing little truth, which are consumed by little minds.

Too often on an opal field gossip and rumors are more colorful and more easily found than the opal that has been mined.

If you are unable to resist your foolish urge, please at least make the gossip creative, colorful and comical.

To update you on our current activity and plans, we are mining Koroit opal.  We are finding Koroit opal.  In the not too distant future we will be selling Koroit opal. 

As I mentioned above, in the future I hope to share far more.  Thank you for your patience and understanding.
