"Wildfire" Bubble Opal Slab
Utah, USA
5.62 x 2.48 x 0.39 inches (14.27 x 6.30 x 0.99 cm)

This vibrant slab of "Wildfire" Bubble Opal showcases a bold mix of flame-like orange, deep red, and golden tones, layered with intricate natural banding and eye-catching texture. Found only in Utah, this rare material is known for its intense coloration and bubbly, contorted internal structure that gives each specimen a dynamic, molten appearance. The rich palette and unique texture make this slab especially appealing for collectors and decorative displays alike. This material is no longer being actively mined, as the only known locality has been closed to commercial extraction-making such specimens much more difficult to find.
