OK so the website is way overdue for a good update and makeover! We would love to receive input from you as to what you would like to see on the site, and how we can make it better. We will try to include a guest book or reader blog if the need is there. The design will be getting a complete makover and it should be much easier to search for things. We are open to all suggestions.
Please direct any mail to industryx@industryx.com.au
Thankyou.

'OPAL IDENTIFICATION AND
VALUE' Revised, Expanded and
Updated. 2003
Paul Downings first release of this book back in 1992 was the pinnacle
of its class for the time, but this new edition explains points
in a much more understanding language.
His methodology in the valuation of opal is very easy to follow
and apply.
This is an extremely valuable book for all gemologists
and valuers.
