Some wicked opals in there OS! You definitely named your thread appropriately.

[SwordfishMining]

Definitely collectable!

[OpalSpectrum]

I like it because there are very good examples of great opals and different patterns which is quite usefull

I'm sure there are even better collections out there but I don't think there is any better shown on video
*I remember only this one which was posted long time ago on OA - also amazing collection

[OpalSpectrum]

check out this crazy black opal

[SwordfishMining]

Thats a nice big chunk of Stable TinTinBar which is supposed to "never" be stable JUST like Virgin Valley isn't. Exceptions actually prove the rule is incorrect instead of a rule that needs to be followed instead of accounted for. I read it was a surface find and kept dry in a safe for 40 years until now. Who else sees a rush over there to re-explore more? Of course finding where to dig is a lot easier than funding a dig LOL or recovering your expenses.

Oh my, that has got to be the finest and largest black opal ever found, and to hear that it was kept dry, in a safe for 40 years is astounding since the recommendation is that neither pearls nor opals be kept in a safe.

That's amazing, and a real treat to see. Thanks so much for posting it for us OS!!

That volcanic Opal from NSW, cant be cut vecause it would fall apart.
Now out of its safe, the change of humidity may crack it, I hope not.
