Got some metal detecting in today and the park gave up one of it's treasures.
It sounded off in the nickel/gold discriminator region. The stones appear to be Opal. Too bad one of them are missing. [attachment=4303:DSC00772.JPG] [attachment=4305:DSC00798.JPG] [attachment=4306:DSC00800.JPG] [attachment=4307:DSC00802.JPG] Boogie -------------------- peto metallum honestus

Good old soap and water would work just fine with an old tooth brush. Just make sure the water isnt too hot or cold as Opals dont like quick extreme temp changes.
