    Great presentation Jenny, but Quilpie and Winton-Longreach areas produced superb gem quality opals equal to Lightning Ridge's top gems. I know, I mined them and saw them mined by associates.

      Hi Douglas! Absolutely, Queensland boulder opal has some of the most vibrant play of colour you’ll find in Australian opal. Thanks for watching and commenting! 😁👍

    Very cool! Those Tintenbar opals, could you not keep them in a fine mineral oil? I only ask as the mineral oil wont evaporate off.

    • @CuriosityMine
      @CuriosityMine  Před 6 lety

      MrTatts64 Yes absolutely, mineral oil would also preserve those beautiful stones. As they’re part of the Australian Opal Centre’s collection, though, they remain presented as they were donated. Thank you for your comment! 😄
