Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Opalite is an opal-dominated rock (opal = amorphous hydrous silica = SiO2·nH2O). “Opal” is a mineral/mineraloid name. “Opalite” is a rock name. Opalites form principally by alteration of volcanic rock or alteration of siliceous sinter (a type of hot spring deposit). They are often described as “impure” opal rocks. Opalite lacks the famous “fire” and rainbow colors of gem-grade opal.
