Opal is a mineral from the class of oxides and hydroxides. As an amorphous solid, Opal (like glass) has no crystal structure and typically occurs as a massive vein-filling or nodular formation.
Opals are processed exclusively into gemstones.
The word Opal was borrowed from the Latin opalus or the Greek ὀπάλλιος opallios for ‘precious stone’ and presumably goes back to upala from Sanskrit. According to Allan W. Eckert in his work The World of Opals, the term was used to denote various stones, while the early Magyars called opálbánya opal mines.
Opals were considered particularly valuable gemstones in antiquity, sometimes even valued higher than diamonds. Pliny the Elder wrote about it: “[…] it has a fire of its own, finer than that in carbunculus, it possesses the purplish spark of amethyst and the sea-green of emerald and an utterly incredible play of light.”
