  • Materials: Boulder Opal

Seller's description

POLISHED BOULDER OPAL SPECIMENS*
A selection of highly polished specimens with seams of vibrant opal running through the ironstone matrix from Australia's Queensland outback, weighing at least 700 carats/140g. You will receive 3 individual pieces per listing - you can choose your preferred set from available lots in the drop down menu. These pieces are considered MEDIUM/LARGE - As a rough guide, one lot was measured: 40-80mm in height, 35-36mm in width, and approx 10mm in depth.

QUILPIE
The township of Quilpie in the Queensland outback, Australia is host to boulder opal fields, and is close by the famous Koroit, Yowah and Eromanga fields.

BOULDER OPAL
Australian Boulder opals are the second most valuable type of opal (following black opal). Boulder opals, as the name suggests, are mined from large ironstone boulders under the ground. Thin veins of colourful opal forms in cracks and fissures in these boulders. The thin layer of opal in boulder opals can display any colour of the spectrum in a beautiful play of colour, rich blue, turquoise and translucent yellows are visible, all with great fire. Interesting bandings and patterning also.
