Buying Opals - Descriptions

DESCRIPTION
All opals should have the exact location the opal was mined from
Opal miners or wholesalers know where the opal came from and as wholesaler of opal I like to know the mine the opal came from and from what depth the opal was mined.

That sole factor alone is why we have been successful at wholesaling opals.
We know the opal source and location and details of the opal mines operation and we know the family tree a this opal mine,
As example we know if opal field  has had good opal production and if opal has been good and stable or if opal from a particular filed cuts better or worse than it does in the rough, so important factors if your after repeat business
