Umoona Opal Mine first worked in the 1920s… and today we take people through this Coober Pedy mine in our Coober Pedy Tours to see (and understand) how opal is formed and mined.

What you will experience with our mine tour:

  • An explanation of opals including the different types and quality.
  • Underground dugout home – contrasting examples of an early hand dug and modern machine dug Modern Dugout.
  • Let us explain the reason and differences to living underground.
  • As well you’ll get a 10% Discount on Jewellery not already discounted and Complimentary Tea/Coffee after your tour.
