      Definitely for Opal related entertainment value, Pulitzer opal is the top dog, for sure. And always good info. He's in my list of top top 5 favorite channels. Him, Phil at @theopalmills who does virtually EVERYTING involved in the processes of the opal trade, from mining, to jewelry. and Roy at @roysrocks are also in that category, because of the educational value, and of course Justin at @blackopaldirect he always has some incredible material, and also provides great info. Then there's Jaymin, Noah, and JC, from @younggunsopalhunters who show a pretty fun side of opal mining. (Although it would be really cool to see daily content from them! 😆)

    Well you did it this time! I previously blamed you for getting my daughter interested in precious stones (she's 11). She finally convinced me to get us a Cab King 6. It just showed up. I don't know if I should say thank you or tell you off lol. It's nice to see her getting into a rewarding hobby that will lead us out into desert rock hounding more.
    Keep the great videos coming.

And I’m headed out tomorrow to look. We had a pretty good rain the other day so I might get lucky. The Natives in Missouri were blessed with an abundance of chert and flint. I should make a short video of a couple of hillsides on our farm during the winter. Hillside is covered with it, although it’s been exposed for who knows how long and mostly freeze cracked👍🇺🇸

I think I have commented this before, but with enough of those opal chips, you could make a stunning inlay in a table or other furniture piece.
