    We had an old timer in our club who had the best looking piece of
    Australian Opal I have ever seen. It must have been two inches by
    two inches in size. he stored it in his safe deposit box. a couple of
    years later he opened the box and found the opal had exploded in to a
    million pieces. It was determined that the drying effect on the aid
    conditioner drew all the moisture out of the opal. While this was a
    few years ago and some improvement in banks have improved I would not
    want to take a chance,
