English term or phrase: Rusty opal quartz
El término se encuentra en una lista de piedras semi preciosas de una tienda de accesorios. Qué variedad de ópalo o cuarzo es? No encuentro el equivalente en español. Conozco el ópalo blanco, negro, de fuego, lechoso, común, arlequín...alguna idea?

Thanks!
