Morado Opal Slab - Mexico
Morado Opal, also known as Mexican opal, is a beautiful purple variety of common opal found in central Mexico. It was discovered in 2011 and is one of the most affordable opals available, making it a popular choice for jewelry and other decorative items.
While it doesn't exhibit the same level of color play as precious opal, Morado opal's unique purple hue and affordability make it a desirable gemstone. Its color is often described as a deep violet or lavender, and it can sometimes show a blue or violet fluorescence under shortwave UV light.
Morado opal is primarily composed of silica with minor amounts of fluorite. The fluorite inclusions are responsible for the unique purple color and fluorescence of the stone.
