Collectors specimens like this are becoming increasingly rare due to the major fields being mostly worked out and declining mining activity.

Over 100 million years ago the middle of Australia was an inland sea thriving with marine life. As the Sea receded these sea creatures were left to die in the sea floor. Shells, bones or cartilages formed cavities in the sandstone or the sea floor. This cavity was then filled with silica and formed the beautiful opalized belemnite pipes, sea shells and prehistoric fossils that we all marvel at today.
