OPALITE
Opalite is an opalized volcanic tuff or ash that may occur with common opal and agate. It may be dendritic. The key distinction between opalite
and common opal is that opalite is very hard; specimens of opalite
saw or chip with difficulty, whereas opal is commonly glassy and
chips easily Opalite may have a wet appearance upon breaking fresh
specimens creating the illusion of opal. Because of its hardness,
opalite will commonly be found in pronounced outcrops or ridges in
localities in the Mojave Desert and other world wide localities,
while common opal outcrops form muddy, rolling hills or colored soil (laterites?). Common opal fractures readily into tiny crumbs upon
hitting with a rock hammer and opalite does not.
Opalite probably has a hardness of five to six
. Opalite appears to decompose into sand,
while common opal appears to decompose into a clay or mud (expansive
clay). Opalite is associated with deep beds of volcanic ash or
welded ash flow tuff, so it may occur with deposits of fossil palm
root, palm wood, and bog . Opalite is
often associated with moss agate and plume agate. Opalite can be a
variety of colors, including white, tan, brown, green, and peach.
Opal has a brittle fracture to it, while opalite does not exhibit
this property.

Waarom overbieden gebruikers zichzelf?
Wanneer een bod wordt geplaatst, is dit het maximale bedrag dat een persoon bereid is te bieden voor het product. Ons systeem zal dan automatisch bieden namens de bieder, waarbij het bod stapsgewijs wordt verhoogd tot het maximum om hun positie als hoogste bieder te behouden.
Wanneer er een pictogram is dat 'Automatisch bod' aangeeft, betekent dit dat ons systeem actief biedingen plaatst voor de bieder op basis van hun maximale bod. Dit kan lijken alsof bieders zichzelf overbieden, maar het is gewoon een resultaat van het systeem dat het bod bijwerkt om de maximale limiet van de bieder weer te geven.
