I AM DEALER OF GEM STONES. USING FIRST TIME FIRE OPAL TO MAKE BEADS AND CUT STONES ETC. THIS ROUGH I AM TALKING LOOK GOOD IN COLOR AND MOST OF IT IS WITH QUITE TRANSULENT OR TRANSPERENT AND WITH GOOD AND DEEP ORANGE COLOR. AFTER GRINDING AND SOME AFTER POLISHING GETS MILKY WHITE INSIDE. IF YOU PUT THEM IN WATER THE MILKYNESS GOES AWAY AND COME BACK AFTER AN HOUR OR SO AFTER TAKING OUT OF WATER. ALTHOUGH NOT HAPPENING WITH ALL THE STUFF NOTHING CHANGE IN LIGHTER ORANGE. WHERE WE ARE MAKING MISTAKE. WHAT CORRECTION IN PROCESS. ANY REFERENCE OR BOOK OR SITE TO LOOK ANSWER ?
