That's opal for you. Never know. That's why we love it so much. Always the mystery of what is underneath. Next one may be wonderful. 😊 Greetings from the Little, Australia.
@@polishedopals8667 I'm still getting my gear together. You are way ahead of me. We learn on the way. Having a great result is nice, but the learning is way better! Personal opinion. It's fun.
@@polishedopals8667 I saw that... Heard your disappointment. It's great you showed it. Most never show a bad stone and it happens a lot of the time. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with me
I like to think that the bad ones just give me more time to work on the good ones, because I can start working i.e. Thursday or Friday, 11-12 days in advance, instead of the following Wednesday.

Little DESERT region of Victoria. 😊
At least it was an interesting inside. I don't think I've had so many holes and loose stones in cavities in an opal before.

I always see the very best in opal ... Hopefully you figure something out... I saw such beautiful colors
Nah, it looks good for the side, but it's just holes in the middle.

I always hope for the best. Sometimes it doesnt work out because of the rock, or because of me.
@@ThatOpalGuy I've seen you pull between out of worse
You gave it your best and it refused to cooperate. On to the next challenge.
