Sulla Stuart Highway nelle vicinanze di Coober Pedy si incontrano centinaia di cumuli di terra, resti degli innumerevoli scavi di sondaggio. Quello che si cerca e si estrae è l'Opale. L'attività estrattiva è adesso gestita da grandi società, ma un tempo molti venivano a cercare fortuna. Vivevano, lavoravano, e spesso morivano, sopportando privazioni e fatiche oggi inimmaginabili. Pochissimi si arricchivano. Questi cumuli ormai abbandonati ed inutili restano a futura memoria degli avventurosi pionieri che non hanno mai più abbandonato questi selvaggi ed isolati territori.
