Australia | Yowah Opal Field, Queensland

Australia's Far South Western Queensland region is famous for its high-quality boulder opal and unique "Yowah Nut Opal." Queensland's (Yowah Opal Fields) are located south of Charleville and Quilpie, or west of Cunnamulla, in south-western Queensland, near the New South Wales border.

The other-worldly surface of the earth at the Coober Pedy Umoona mines is man-made, with thousands of "Kupa piti," or "white man's hole in the ground" covering the landscape, as far as the eye can see.
