Opal contains 6 to 10 percent water, therefore direct exposure to sunlight or heat can crack or deform opal. Mexico and the state of Oregon in the United States produce volcanic opal called fire opal. Fire opal is transparent opal ranging in color from colorless to yellow, orange and red. Sometimes it also shows play of color in addition to its bright orange body color. Opal is the birthstone of October.
