Mineralogy: Opal is not technically a mineral, as it lacks a crystalline structure. Rather, it is a hydrous amorphous silica mineraloid (a substance that resembles a mineral). Water droplets bound up in opal's structure may create iridescence when arranged such that light diffraction occurs. Iridescent opal is called 'precious opal', while non-iridescent specimens are called 'common opal'. Opal comes in almost every color imaginable; pink opal specimens generally come from either Peru or Australia.
Metaphysical Properties: Pink Opal connects with the heart chakra, opening the wearer to compassionate communication and genuine love.
As with all of Mother Nature's creations, appearance will vary, but the item you receive will be similar in quality to the photos above.
