Opals are found in nearly every location. The rarer verieties of opal, however, are only found in certain locations and occur rather rarely in the treasure system.

An opal is hydrated silicon dioxide, usually containing between three and ten percent water, but somtimes containing as much as 20 percent. Common (white) opal is truly amorphous, but precious opal has a structural element.[1]
