Science Team! I love hunting for gems, and my favorite rock (it’s actually a gel) is an opal! I found out there were opal mines just near the Oregon boarder of Nevada. Naturally I packed my bags and went!
I had a blast!!! I loved the entire experience from beginning to end and will certainly be going again.
Enjoy this video of my experience at Royal Peacock Opal Mines http://www.royalpeacock.com/

Knew about it want to go.
benimite is black opal!
Whelp. Looks like I need to take a trip to Nevada…first time I have had a care to visit that state. Anyways, what do you mean by stabalizing the opal by putting it in water?
I like the way you explain things is my language. You read the rocks well and you found some beautiful pieces. The limb casts are very cool thank you for showing us 😊
I WASN’T WONDERING WHY YOU ARE ON THE BORDER OF CALIFORNIA AND NEVADA.
In the old days,when Virgin Valley opal miners wanted stable, cuttable opal, they had a proven method.
Large opals were placed on hot tin roofs till they fractured into many smaller pieces. The surviving opal was then as stable as Australian opal. Large specimens that would be very valuable today were broken into many tiny stones.
It’s still the only proven way to make Virgin Valley opal usable for jewelry .
Where does one found opal?
I don’t want to live in America anymore
Really would like to mine my birthstone! Glad to see that opal is found here in the US!
Den-eye-oh

Really your looking for a crystal gem hahaha
opals are my favirote gemstone too!sometime i will get one!!!!!
Nice! How do you stabilize the opal so you can make jewelry?
Oh wow. Our opals are good here in Australia. Thank goodness, because yours are crap.
The answer is easy.
Move to asstralia and start mining there.best opal on earth

What are those things worth polished, $200-400 a carat?
Wow these people who call themselves a government sure do have a nice cushie thing going on, lets charge the public to go on their land that belongs to everyone to find a rock, and they pay it !!!
Always wanted to go mining black opal in Nevada. Saw a show on tv about treasure hunting and showed a woman finding about $10,000 in a few hours! Learned more from your video
Very interesting great video and I’m so surprised that they have AA mine that’s open to the public

I found a few pieces of jem quality opal on the Yakima Firing Center in the state of Washington while in the military. Mind you I wasn’t doing any digging, it was just lying there on the surface. Walking around in an impact area is probably not a very safe place to search for opal….lol
Informative and fun watching. Congratulations on your discoveries.
