The Kurtze family began mining opal in Andamooka in the early 1970’s then helped to open the new field of Mintabie around 1973. All Rhorex opal was mined by the family before 1976. Additionally, all stones have been cut by a family member. This allows us to supply complete provenance and total control over quality.

Note: The two dogs in the gallary below are Rhory and Rex. They were great company to my grandfather while he was mining and are the namesakes of Rhorex.
