Hi Chris,
Happy new year to you too!!!

Lightning Ridge is tighting down on the laws and
people that go through other peoples claims are often
called ratters, you hear some stories of peoples hands
being cutt off, but i am sure that there urban myths.
the best person to talk to other there about fossils
is Jenni Brammal, she is the project manager of a new
museum trying to be biult to showcase the fossils
found in the area. the other person to contact is Liz
Smith (she is an expert in fossil turtles).

Jenni's work number is 02 68291667

every year arround june july there is the opal expo at
the Ridge and some fossil often turn up at reasional
prices.

All the best

Rodney
