*Matrix opal forms throughout the pores of it's host rock (matrix) - Limestone, which is naturally light in colour. A sugar and acid treatment is used to darken the limestone, and therefore makes the opal play-of-color stand out more. This treatment is commonly used for Andamooka Matrix Opal gemstones.
