Missing good time with these fellows, who mines opal for us in Australia !!!

Norm 

(boulder opal miner in QLD, Australia) ...

Peter (left) & Ken (right)

  

black opal miners in Lightning Ridge, 

NSW, Australia.

These guys are amazing.

Working hard under the heat, looking for precious opal (solid, black opal & boulder opal) 

for us so that we can introduce it to the world !!!   ^^

To see beautiful collection  →   http://www.opal-direct.com

And my big duty is ....

Before being able to introduce it to the world, I have to sit down in front of "the most beautiful gem on earth  -  OPAL" and examine its condition first.

And ask myself the following questions.

*  Is there any scratch, crack, damage, obvious imperfection on the opal ?

*  What is the carat weight, the exact measurements and all details of each opal ?

*  How much will it be in today's market (what is the best price to offer) ?

*  How should I design & set it in the jewelry so the beauty will show most ?

*  What's the best method to show its beauty professionally ? 

*  Where & who will be the most suitable place / person to take it home ?

*  Am I confident enough to sell it and guarantee my clients forever ?  etc ...

        

When all is done & prepared, 

we then list our opal collection to show to everyone !! 

Beautiful thing does not come around easily ...

Without these fellows hard work and my part, 

you might not be able to see these 

"rainbow collection" today.

More "opals with smiles" please !!!!!

Looking for more opals for our clients around the world !!!

The reality is harsh though ... 

Less quality black opal and boulder opal can be found today, and if there's one, the price tends to be much higher than you're expected.

 Our mission is to keep finding the right material, solid Australian opal for the right price, to the right person, in order to keep ourselves & our clients happy .

 

And the opal industry, of course!   ^^

If you check through our website, you'll fully understand what we meant by 'keeping every happy' ... 

The quality of opal is at its maximum and the price, can't complain, right ??!!?   ^^

Finding Australian boulder opal in Queensland (Quilpie, Winton and Opalton) is extremely difficult. 

And Black opal from Lightning Ridge is valuable, 

too rare and too dear ...

How can we work hard, closely with opal miners today is another task for the wholesaler like us. 

Always a big 'challenge' for us!

But loving what we do, haha.

Trying not to lose is a 'hope' and a 'big smile'  (^^)

That's the spirit within all OPAL LOVER !!!

Life is hard at opal mines, but

"Cheers!" my friend.

AUSTRALIAN OPALS ♪ for the world ..

As you already know how much I love 'Australian Quality Opals' ...

I enjoy travelling abroad promoting this beautiful gemstone -

 

NATIONAL GEMSTONE OF AUSTRALIA

 

OPAL 

See how much strenght in color, the uniqueness,

the sophistication and the preciousness in this gem.

 

No other minerals would be as 'different' as

Australian Black Opal or Boulder Opal ♪   

When I have exhibitions or special events,

organized by clients / gem associates ...

I will take about 500 to 1000 pieces of

Black Opal & Boulder Opal Loose Stones,

all solid, high quality pieces

directly from Australia.

 

Preparing Import & Export documentations

can be costly, time consuming, need skills

and must follow the regulation.

 

Not many can pass Australian Customs Security

easily without doing the right thing ...

That's why GEMSTORY PTY LTD.,

is trusted & still can survive in Opal Industry today.

 

 

I have been introducing Australian Opal

for the past 20 years with a great help of supporters

(Opal cutters, Opal miners, Opal buyers, Opal admires,

Opal designers, Opal Associates, Opal exporters, etc),

without their friendship and their understanding -

I would not be here today !!!  (^^)

 

 

 

 

 

GEMSTORY PTY LTD.,

mainly introduce 'cut & polished' Opals,

but sometimes we can provide special materials

like this 'rough opals' too. 

Feel free to make enquiries on anything,

to see if we can help you in future.

Nothing is impossible ... right ?!?

 

 

 

 

Well, my next move is to promote

Australian Lightning Ridge Black Opal & Boulder Opal

from Quilpie / Winton - Queensland ...

at TUCSON SHOW in Arizona.

 

http://emol.org/tucson/gemshow/

 

 

Anyone interested to see me in Tucson Show,

get ready for drinks & party, hahaha !!!!

 

Another awesome weather in Gold Coast,

my beautiful city (^^)

"THANKS" to BEAUTIFUL OPALS ...

Australian Opal - Just individually unique and precious ...

and extremely BEAUTIFUL nothing can be

compared to this gemstone!!

Its color, patterns, character, free formed shape and

of course, its 'rareness' ... Just too unique ♪

Finding one high quality Boulder Opal like what

I am showing here, is a hard sweat ...

The miner must deal with the hot heat all day,

must work in a dusty condition wearing the right gear,

they must spend so much fees and time moving the machinery

& repairing it when it breaks down.

 

Could you be the one to do it all??!!?

Finding Australian Boulder Opal & Black Opal

is not something many miners could do,

simply because there's too much risks & costs involved,

yet the amount of opal they can find is ... absolutely next to nothing !!!!   (><)  !!!!!

 

 

http://www.gemstory.com.au

But why are there still some opal miners continue mining??

Well, either they are crazy (hahaha!) or just too much

in love with this gem, they just don't know how to

stop looking for ONE !!!

 

Once they get involved in mining these

'EXQUISITE OPALS - Black & Boulder' ...

it's in their blood for the rest of their lives. 

 

As an opal exporter & wholesaler, representing Australia,

I really am proud of my profession -

and thinking "I am one of a CRAZY one too,

been involving in this for the last 20 years" ...  (^^;  

 

 

Gold Coast, where I live is so different to the opal mine ... sometimes it is good to be in the field with friends,

but always nice & relaxed to be at home of beautiful beaches.

 

Have a good afternoon, my friends!!!
