Chambers Of The Black Hand Description

Ron Canlin is the creator of an underground labyrinth of mythological fantasy worlds in an old opal mine in Lightning Ridge, northwestern NSW, outback Australia. The ever-expanding work of art and imagination began more than ten years ago as a relaxing hobby after the daily hard grind of work in the (largely unproductive) mine below (20m underground). The soft sandstone of the mine shafts was an ideal medium upon which to work his craft. He was encouraged in the hobby by his associates and soon carving became a full-time occupation. Ron digs all the tunnels using a pick-axe and a bucket to remove the debris, and carves using a small pick and a bread-knife for the finer details. Various chambers take one through the Aussie bush, Ancient Egypt, biblical legends, Greek myths, ancient and modern heros, symbols and epics. . . there is no end to Ron's energy and imagination.

Here is the programme, check it out as there will be plenty to do and don't forget the local attractions or tourist operators, explore The Chambers of the Black Hand an underground mine with over 800 carvings and paintings on the sandstone level complimentary Tea and coffee then down to an original mine worked for over 100 years last but not least the only underground Opal shop in the Ridge with a beautiful range of jewellery. Take a tour around town with Black Opal Tours or combine both to save time, see Amigo's Castle the artesian bore baths, these are things you need do or see check out Bruno's for a nice quiet relaxed meal. Lightning Ridge is never boring. and you haven't seen the Ridge unless you have seen them.

Well it's been a busy Christmas and New Year holiday is nearly over Cody is back from the Philippines and ready to get back to work we are about a week behind him and we have enjoyed a well earned rest plus it is time to get serious once again. We are about to open a theatre in the Chambers where you will get to see some video's made in the good old days lots of fun, lots of laughs and a few lessons to be learnt. Watch this space

Loved the tour, it was really interesting and pretty mindblowing! Sadly, the necklace that my husband gifted me from the shop - not a cheap one - had the opal fall out within a matter of a few months � I never received a reply to my message, either, to see if anything could be done to rectify it. Disappointing.
