Published the official Opal Mining Safety Handbook

Majestic Opals was chosen by the South Australian Government to research and develop Safety measures in the opal fields. This resulted in the production of a Safety In Opal Mining Handbook and video in four languages used by all South Australian miners. The project won a Judges Citation Award in 1999 from the South Australian Resources Industry, and now this Mining Safety Handbook is widely used in the industry.

一切是如何開始的

1964 年,來自希臘的移民約翰·普羅瓦蒂迪斯 (John Provatidis) 出發前往南澳大利亞貧瘠、乾旱的中心地帶庫伯佩迪 (Coober Pedy),他用鎬和鏟子挖掘,艱難地學習了開採蛋白石的藝術。但艱苦的勞作也讓他體會到他所耕種的土地的複雜性。它是空靈的美麗、寧靜、嚴酷,以及它的豐富。

Sophia Provatidis 多年來一直支持她的丈夫,因為他成為了一位受人尊敬的礦工和批發商。 Sophia 是推動業務擴展到切割和拋光被礦工稱為“原石”蛋白石的原石的推動力。

該公司專門從事蛋白石化石,如貝殼、蝸牛、海星和樹葉,被精明的投資者視為收藏家的作品。 Sophia 將這些精美的寶石融入設計師珠寶中,深受來自世界各地的人們的喜愛。

家族企業和年輕一代將接管。
