Pink Opal comes from two main opal fields. One new opal field in western Australia and the other from Peru.
The Australian pink opal is found in area west Perth and in these fields opals were first found some 30 years ago but this opal was very unstable and was only for specimens.
This new opal field is a different variety to Mookaite and the Mines department of west Australia has confirmed it is opalized material.
This opal dose not have hues colour but consistent pink colour with magical unique bands white potch which can be wavy pattern to circular patterns and makes these stones so unique.
The stone have very bright polish and the opal rough is ideal to polish.
Some have lot white material and referred to as white opal more than pink.
