Opalized Fossil Snail is a rare and precious form of fossilized snail shell that has been naturally transformed into opal. This remarkable transformation occurs when silica-rich water percolates through the sediment, replacing the organic material of the snail shell with opal. This gemstone captivates with its iridescent play of colors, offering glimpses into ancient marine life. It is highly valued among collectors and enthusiasts for its beauty and geological significance. Opalized Fossil Snail pieces are primarily found in marine fossil beds in Australia, a treasure trove of paleontological wonders.
