Some facts about Opals. Australian Opal Beads are some of the most beautiful and interesting gemstones on Earth. Opal is a natural gemstone made from silica mineral and 90% are found in Australia. What makes Opal distinct is what is referred to as ‘play of color’, a phenomenon that occurs when light hits the chips of silica inside the gemstone and a rainbow of different colors refract inside the stone.
