Light Opal - Green Directional Flash from Lightning Ridge.
White opals have been discovered across the world and are usually the first opals people see and recognise. White opal was traditionally found in Hungary, but they were mined out centuries ago. Today, Australia produces the finest white opal with other smaller finds in Brazil and Ethiopia. Coober Pedy white opal tends to be some of the most robust. It is mined in underground seams, and miners use explosives to extract it from the rock.
Measurements:
8mm long x 6.9mm wide x 3.1mm thick
1.10 Carats
Grading:
N2 - Light Tone
B4 - Moderately Bright
