Paco!!! Gosh watching these videos just makes me so happy. Opal is my “birth stone” so seeing someone who loves them as much as I do makes me giddy. Keep up the amazing work.

Paco Would love to get the stone. As a married grad student I can't really give my spouse any sparkling rocks of particular value. Only ones from rambling youtubers.

So curious minds want to know; what was the miracle elixir that saved the the cracking opals? By the way number four was definitely the most beautiful.

Pulitzer Opal Well in my opinion you're on to something very interesting. As I've said before it's almost like magic. The colors that appear are just beautiful. I'm really partial to the green with the bits of red in them. Keep up the good work, and have a great day.

@@PulitzerOpal I'm a mineral collector interested in stabilizing unpolished Welo opal with matrix still attached, not a big fan of highly polished material. I noticed all specimens in this video were polished. Does this method work to any degree on rough? I've seen opticon treated rough Welos on opalauctions but I have no idea of the seller's method, or other types of resin used.

Paco is truly a Man on Fire! Gosh, your zany humour is a precious as these opals. Thanks again for another fun video!

Paco! You are always entertaining and informative. Thanks

Not sure I want both my eyes knocked out, I kinda need them, especially since I can only see proplery these days with one, while the other is significantly less able after 7 operations. Man On Fire is a beauty, Mr Paco...I mean Mr Pulitzer :-)

@Jeffrey Foltice Heck, it's worth a shot. I'm not Herr Pulitzer, nor am I Paco, but I will catalog your suggestion for my own future experiments. I've got glorious, GLORIOUS I tell you, desert carved/polished agates and chalcedony that are near perfect. If those wee cracks could be seamlessly and durably filled, perfection will be attained. I've also got big chunks of common translucent/transparent and dendritic opal that could use something that isn't opticon. I've got so many damn rocks...

The man just rolled over the cracks and let bbn it slowly cool and sit for a c ok please weeks more. It was a beauty. I'm seeing a lot of honeycomb patterns in Ethiopian opal.

Would love to be the lucky winner of your give away. From one Rockhound to another :)

This giveaway is a sweet way to honor and introduce Paco. Paco, I was a dog person until I got a cat. Congratulations on 33K subs. ❤️ I’m starting to wire weave.

Really learning a lot on opal with your vids keep it up 👍 PACO

Awesome 👌. Beautiful presentation. Beautiful rocks.

PACO Love your passion for Opals, keep it up, and may 2021 shine's on us like those gems just did !

This is non-hydrophane type Welo opal. It’s mined wet and will typically craze upon drying out. I display mine in freshwater aquarium to preserve them well. Ethiopia also has great production of gem grade Hydrophane opals that don’t have this crazing (cracking) issue. Great video! Not much documentation is available on this non-hydrophane type opal. Very cool stuff! 😎🤙

PACO. This is my first time to see your video and I am at awe with how you worked with the opals. Man on Fire seems a very apt name.

Amazing Opal, your videos are incredible, thank you.

Paco looks like a lot of fun. Great video, thanks.

Wow that opal at lithe end is absolutely beautiful! And PACO is the word
