White Opal from Australia

The Opal Outlet Shop provides white opal from Australia in the form of rough or rubs.  White opal can be white or clear.  The majority of opal rough comes from the Coober Pedy area of southern Australia.  Opal rough is opal material in it’s original rocky state, as it is dug out of the ground.  In most cases, marketable opal rough will be cut or broken stone with some opal material exposed.  Cleaned opal rough can reveal an opal rub.  An opal rub is a cleaned piece of rough that exposes the fire of the opal.  Rubs are ready to cut and shape into an opal gemstone.
