Abstract
The Simav fire opal occurences have specific characteristics. It has
a variety of appearance micro and nanostructures. Chemical, mineralogical
properties, optical observation and SEM analyses of Simav fire
opal occurences have been investigated. Micromorphology, crystal structure,
particle size were examined. To purpose scanning electron microscopes
used on microtextures on fire opal. The yellow to brown colour is correlated
with Fe concentration. The purpose of the peresent investigations
are two fold (1) clarify the microtextures at a level of nanometer
scale (2) to analyze the mechanism of their formation.
