These stones don't belong to him. They are currently in a personal collection owned by a gemologist. He just found the image on google.

opals r really cgeap compared to other gems. In my opinion i like it better. But anyways opals can range from 10 dollars to 10000 dollars.

Opals are NOT cheap in comparison to other stones. They go to ANY price range.

...i know , that is why my question was abut these stones you show , or at least similar ones.
Also swapping is a good way of trading gemstones...then the personal value gets involved.
...my genuine set of mexican fire-opal and girasol shows a diferent side of opal....

These stones would cost THOUSANDS. If they're genuine lightning ride blacks that is. You obviously know nothing about the prices of gemstone. Opals can be just as expensive as any other stone. These gems in the photo aren't yours. They're all over Google.

I'm assuming you meant the stone opal, right? Wow! I'd love to have a piece of jewelry like that! Where on earth did you find it?!

He doesn't own these stones. He just found the image on google. Look up "lightning ridge back opal" this picture is the first thing that pops up.

there are different types of opals. Black Opal,fire opal,blue opal, lab created, and plain opal. I found it at a mine. It is called the bonanza opal mine in bonanza.look it up and oull see there is some pretty cool stuff you can buy there. found this one at an already excavated part of the mne, had it cut and it looks awesome.
