Mixed Opal Rough Information

Mixed opal rough is a parcel of rough opals comprising a mixture of the various type of rough opal. Usually a parcel of rough opal will contain only one type; either black opal rough, boulder opal rough or crystal opal rough. But occasionally there are mixed opal rough parcels that contain two or three varieties in one lot.

Why Mixed Opal Rough Parcels Are Needed

This is particularly good if you are just starting to learn opal cutting and you want to have a few pieces of different types of opal to experiment with. So the parcel may be mixed because the buyer has asked for some of each type or because the seller has decided that the rough works better together. Opalmine has some parcels of mixed opal rough available especially for the hobby cutter or amateur lapidarist.
