Compared to the renowned Australian mining areas, these stones are less common. They are mostly of volcanic origin, formed where silica-rich solutions are deposited in rock fissures in regions of intense volcanic activity.\nTheir colors can range from milky white or greyish tones to dark, sometimes almost black, shades. Under certain lighting conditions, some specimens show a subtle iridescent play of colors. So-called \"wood opals,\" which form when ancient wood is permeated and fossilized, are also quite common. These often retain visible organic patterns from the original material.\nOpal mining in Indonesia is not as extensive as in some other countries, which partly explains the lower global awareness of these stones. Mining is frequently done by hand, with minimal mechanization, and many specimens are subsequently cut and polished.\nIndonesian opals are primarily valued for their exotic origin. They are rarely exported in large quantities, which makes them a rare and sought-after addition to collectors' portfolios.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PeltramMinerals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58028127617349,"sku":"IO005","price":103.42,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0881\/1659\/2965\/files\/33266-7_indonesian-opal-7-7ct---cabochon---indonesia.jpg?v=1779380527","url":"https:\/\/moldavite.it\/en\/products\/indonesian-opal-77ct-cabochon-indonesia-io005","provider":"Moldavite.it","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
