[QUOTE="Jack's Gems, post: 374730, member: 7783"] Yes, from your description I thought it could be Andamooka Matrix Opal or fairy opal. And it is! Fairy opal is the same thing as Andamooka matrix - treated sandstone opal, but the fairy is from a different locality than Andamooka. Also, Not man-made, but it is treated by sugar. Great find! - Jack :Y: [/QUOTE]
