Unusual Yellow Opal Rough

[Cappy Z.]

Bought this chunk on Ebay for about $10.00 plus shipping. It is very much clearer and less opaque than the usual yellow opal. I suspect a small piece could be facted quite nicely. I might pay someone to actually break it up and make several translucent facted stones. You can see the yellow fire that emits with just a very small led light.

Here is a small faceted Opal I also purchased. Although attractive in its own right, it does not have the fire as the above rough.
