Yes, I am new here - hello to everyone. (Although I've been using email etc for quite a while, I'm new to the forum thing.) To put it simply, I'm a miner, cutter and wholesaler of Koroit Boulder Opal. My website: www.koroit.com, Blog: koroit.blogspot.com I just got back from a 2 month mining trip to Koroit. I'm just getting over the jet lag and will soon be cutting lots of opals from the material I brought back. I shipped home about a ton and a half of rough which should be here around mid-December. If you have any questions etc, please feel free to contact me - however because I just got back and am a bit busy there may be a delay in my response. New photos from my last trip should be up on my blog soon. thanks, Gene |

Welcome Gene, Like your website. Looking forward to pics, and advice on how to work the koroit. I have a couple pounds sitting, that I keep looking at and trying to decide how to cut, etc.

Thanks for your hellos & welcomes. I've added a few photos to my facebook page and to my blog (koroit.blogspot.com). I expect to be adding more photos and a few videos this week. As you can imagine there are many things to juggle when i first get home after being gone for almost two months. Please feel free to contact me either here or through email: koroit@gmail.comI have to go and sort some rough opal. thanks, Gene |
