LA-32Half Price Sale!-10.25 Carat Australian Opal Cabochon-Lambina Opalfield
SOLD
Half Price Sale!-Lambina opalfield was originally discovered in the 1930's and worked intermittently until 1989 when a second opal deposit was found about 2km from the original diggings. Large scale mining began in the early 1990's with bulldozers and excavators. Unfortunately the field is completely exhausted with no active mining occurring here at present.
We bought a very large parcel from Lambina in 2000 and again in 2003, when we secured a lovely top gem parcel. A photo of the tops grade of this parcel can be seen in our 2003 trip report...wish I had put a few pieces aside for myself.
Lovely freeform double sided cabochon with dimensions of 29mm x 10mm x 6mm thick. 10.25 carats.
