An opal surprise inside a piece of bubble band matrix -

This was a piece of what looked like bubble band matrix when it was in the wall. It’s visible in the wall in my previous video showing three different types of opal.
As it dropped out of the wall, it split open, revealing what looks like opalized wood inside.
Please pardon the poor lighting. This was mainly illuminated with the light from my headlamp.
