WOW, those are some awesome Opals. Are the from Australia? I have some sort of like the ones with the green flashing but the green is real narrow, will it get larger with grinding, or could it all grind off? The cab is nice too. Hope to see more, very nice...

I like them all, but I love the green one! Reminds me of the egg in "Alien".
