“Scent” by Kior_____ on twitter

“Drop stones are not fossils, they are large quartzite boulders which sometimes contain thin seams of opal, usually referred to as painted lady, the opal is so thin it appears painted on. They are thought to have floated down from Antartica when it was still joined to Australia. They are only found at White Cliffs and Andamooka. The specimen above possibly contains some fossil remains which are now opal.”
