There are three basic types of precious opal: boulder opal, black opal and white opal. Black and White Opal have distinct healing properties of their own. There are also other types of Opal, including Fire Opal from Mexico, Green Opal from Madagascar and Pink Opal from Australia.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt; text-align: justify;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: black;\"\u003eIn Australia, Boulder Opal is mined in Queensland.

Tiny silicon dioxide globules are formed in with a small amount of water and gas enclosed. These globules bend light, giving the opal its wonderful play of colour. The flashing colours are called fire or opalescence. The fire appears as sparkles of vivid colours floating on top of the stone.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: black;\"\u003eColour: black, blue, green, pink, red, white; iridescent or pearly\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt; line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eTransparency: opaque, translucent, transparent\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt; line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eLustre: vitreous, waxy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt; line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eCrystal system: amorphous\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt; line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eFracture: uneven\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt; line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eHardness: 5.5-6.5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt; line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: black;\"\u003eMineral group: silicates\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eFormula: SiO₂·nH₂O\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt; line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: black;\"\u003eLocation: Australia (97 per cent) Ethiopia, Madagascar, Mexico, USA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt; line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: black;\"\u003eRarity: rare, extremely rare\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: black;\"\u003eChakra: Throat, Crown\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: black;\"\u003eEmotional: amplifies, awareness, desire, eroticism, release inhibitions, seduction, sexuality, soothing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: black;\"\u003eMental\/intellectual: amplifies, love of life, optimism, spontaneity, unconventional thinking\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 5.0pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: black;\"\u003eSpiritual: angelic beings, chakra rebalancing, creativity, inspiration, protection, purification.
