Fantastic opal collection. I heard about Louisiana opal from Pulitzer’s last video. I did look it up online. Since it is only about 5 hours from me I’d like to check it out when I get the chance. Virgin Valley, Nevada is also on my bucket list.
This would be the greatest prize I’ve ever won hands down, but just like every other contest I’ve ever entered; unfortunately I’ll be a loser. I am perfectly content with that it’s what makes me, me! Congratulations to whoever receives this amazing prize
This winner was already picked and this is their prize but there will always be another draw around the corner and everyone that wins says they never win...
There have been a few precious opals found in WA as well but the pink opal is pretty common. If you want more info on the pink opal from WA: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IcscFM7hXFU.html
Its really fun to work, pretty soft and looks great but I think faceting it is much better than carving or cabbing. Really old video working on one: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0BPCGmP2l9Q.html
Really curious for the treating and stabilising matrix opal! Looking forward to it. Thanks for making all those videos and sharing your learning curve so we can learn too.
Wow, that's awesome! I had no idea there were so many different kinds of opal out there. Also, I was wondering how many of them fluoresce under UV blacklight? Anyway, I'm sure the winner will be thrilled with their prize! Plus, thanks for doing this informative video ☺️
I met a guy who said that he was the miner of Louisianan brown opal. It did not have any real play of color. It was more of a directional sheen of color on a brown matrix.
Ich finde das du sehr schöne Kann man bei dir auch rohe Steine kaufen? Falls ja dann währe ich sehr interessiert Schöne Grüße aus Deutschland Von Blazej
Ohhh WOWWWW I'm so sorry but I couldn't help myself. I had to watch. It's still going to be a VERY BIG SUPRISE when I receive it 🎉. This is such a good collection! Thank you so much. I'm still on cloud 9 lol. You are very generous 😊
@@RoysRocks Thanks again 😊🎉. I'm so lucky 🎉😂. Very happy. I'm going to enjoy these so much. I sent you a message while in your shop before I seen this. I absolutely love all of it.
Its just a youtube thing. Subscribing is good enough members are just contributing to the channel to keep it going as a donation with a few sneak peeks for video releases and stuff.
Yeah I dont have any Brazilian yet but there are a few I didn't add here like Erongo, Owyhee Opal and a few others. Maybe at the end of the year I'll do a full collection review and show absolutely all the opal varieties I have.
