Don't see anything resembling opal, but I'm no expert. Great looking stuff regardless.

nice geodes, I think white areas inside some of them are common opal, or opalite. Thank you, Yuri

How and where did you obtain these? - I can enlighted you in regards to these specimens. All of these you pictured except for the 21st photo down the line (which is a dugway) all came from my Private Claim called Fallen Tree. I had numerous pay to digs this summer and would bet they were obtained during one of the digs. Could have been a personal dig, or during the Prineville show as I hosted a field trip to this claim and had over 50 people there! Anyrate the hollow Thundereggs you have are actually filled with various Zeolite Minerals. It's probably one of the best Thunderegg location for such specimens. The 6th picture down does have a hint of blue opal as well. Typically I dig blue, white and a pinkish colored opal in the claim. Nice score - These hollow eggs are a blast to cut or crack open. I give away and sell the heck out of em for the kids as well as gift shops such as Crater Lake. Jason www.oregonthundereggs.com
