    Deceased estate rock collection

    First one in first picture is Gypsum. First in second picture could be a arrow/spear head maybe. Looks like it has been shaped by Aboriginal people. Similar to my two arrow/weapon heads. If it's flat'ish it probably is. I agree, general samples. Yep some look like fossilised wood. A couple...

    can anyone tell me what this is.

    The part that's opened up looks like slug. https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/8260/1487393900_win_20170218_15_54_09_pro.jpg Being a ex-welder the inside looks very like it was molten at some point.

    Lightning ridge

    Hope you enjoy your trip. With Lightning Ridge and Coober Pedy, the only way to get Opal in both of those areas is by going underground and mining for it. You will not find any in mullet heaps anymore because they have been noodled. So your only luck is knowing someone who will take you down a...

    Talking about signs

    Great sign, good to see there's a bit of freedom in that area. I noticed while driving through the Hay Plains couple weeks ago that all the Kangaroo warning signs had a pair of balls painted on the kangas, saw it on about 6 signs... dedication... :lol:
