Oh wow! Shame the photo of the finished stone is slightly hazy, the rough looks beautiful

Was it mined bought or found. Really nice colours. Love ridge opals

 

[Jukebox]

It was found of course!

More pics Jukebox please, nice stone. Speccing or underground? From Lightning Ridge?

 

[Jukebox]

north of lightning ridge,

On a friends old claim speccing it's pretty hard up that way.
I would recommend white cliffs as its easier.

 

[Heatho]

Very nice mate. I've heard White Cliffs is good. Would like to find some at least once, I think my real addiction is Sapphires though.

Well done Jukebox, will be good to see the final haul from the trip!

My other nicer stone,

This one is more of a sentimental stone as it was the very first I saw.
In it for the love not the money baby.

Jukey.

Looks like we have another opal addict on our hands.

 

[Heatho]

Very very nice, gotta be happy with that.
