Well, opals are a very beautiful gem, and quite valuable. They are actually remains of ancient, fossilized beings, and have qualities that diamonds do not have, and unlike diamonds, which can be created in a lab, are very unique. Australia is very well known for it's opal mining systems. My source: the Opal Museum in Sydney, Australia.
