Opal Mining and other stories
Tim Webb
ISBN: 978-1-925263-24-4
Tim Webb, a retired opal miner who first came to Coober Pedy in 1975, wrote these stories and poems between 1992 and 1994 when the opal industry wasn’t dominated by the Greens, conversation groups and Government departments, all determined to make miners’ lives difficult.
Although he has worked in other opal fields, he returned to Coober Pedy to retire in 2006.
He has also thrown in some doggerel poetry and a few stories not connected to opal mining.
