      PINK OPAL CARVING
      HAND CARVED.
      The west Australian mines  dept calls this pink opal.
      This is a natural untreated stone found in the Gascoyne region near Carnarvon in West Australia in 2011- previous to this only pink opal was from Peru. This material has various shades of pink with interesting white lines through some specimens.. These opals range from opaque to translucent.
      This is what the West Australian mine dept says about Pink Opal

      Pink opal
      ‘Pink opal’ is a prospectors’ name applied to a different
      variety of mookaite that outcrops as a persistent bed of
      extremely bright pink opalized radiolarite near Binthalya.
      At this site, pink opal is present as a dominant, horizontal
      bed within zones of coloured porcellanites located beneath
      a surface-brecciated zone in which angular fragments of
      pink porcellanite have been cemented by iron and silica
      solutions to produce an attractive pink breccia. The pink
      zone beneath has already been tested by trial mining to
      ascertain the extent and consistency of the pink, opalized
      material.

      Examination of pink opal thin sections has confirmed
      the rock is radiolarite with a dominantly isotropic, finegrained
      mineral composition. Although not verified by
      XRD analysis, the pink opal’s physical and visible optical
      properties suggest it is predominantly opaline silica,
      having a lower bulk density than the locally porcellanized
      mookaite material. Pink opal commonly shows liesegang
      banding and often contains small vugs and fine fractures
      infilled with microcrystalline quartz. Microscopic,
      lustrous grains within the rock result from reflections of
      granular quartz where it has infilled pores and replaced
      radiolarian structures.
      In a manner similar to the origin of mookaite, the resilicification
      of the Windalia Radiolarite forming the pink
      opal porcellanite has resulted in a visually attractive, bright
      pink material displaying a high vitreous lustre. Pink opal
      is extremely hard and brittle with a conchoidal fracture
      . These properties allow pink opal
      to take a high polish, making it suitable for the production
      of colourful, polished tumbled stones, cabochons, and
      other artworks .
