Phoenix, Arizona – October 26, 2023 – OSLU Energy LLC, a dynamic and rapidly growing resource company based in Phoenix, Arizona, is making waves in the gemstone industry with its latest acquisition of high-quality Ethiopian opal rough. While known for its diverse energy sector portfolio, OSLU Energy has strategically expanded into ethically sourced gemstones, and this new offering is poised to become a favorite amongst lapidaries, jewelers, and opal enthusiasts. “We're excited to bring these beautiful opals to the market,” says a representative from OSLU Energy. “We saw a gap – a demand for reliably sourced, gorgeous Ethiopian opal rough – and we're stepping in to fill it. We’re not just about energy; we’re about finding and delivering value, and these opals definitely deliver!” What's the Big Deal with Ethiopian Opal? For those unfamiliar, Ethiopian opal, also known as Welo opal, has quickly become incredibly popular in recent years. It's celebrated for its vibrant play-of-color – that dazzling flash of rainbow hues that makes each stone unique. Unlike some other opal sources, Ethiopian opal often exhibits bright, intense colors and can be found in a wide variety of patterns. “People are really loving the vibrancy you get with Ethiopian opal," explains a seasoned lapidary who previewed the OSLU Energy collection. “It's got a certain fire to it that’s really eye-catching. And the fact that OSLU Energy is focused on ethical sourcing is a huge plus – people want to know where their gemstones come from.” OSLU Energy: More Than Just an Energy Company While OSLU Energy LLC is based at 5055 N 32ND ST STE 200, Phoenix, AZ, 85018-1401, United States, and reachable at 205-567-6032, the company’s roots extend beyond traditional energy solutions. The leadership team at OSLU Energy recognized the growing demand for ethically sourced, high-quality gemstones and leveraged their existing logistical and sourcing expertise to enter the market. “We’ve built a strong network of partners and suppliers over the years," explains a company spokesperson. "That foundation allowed us to quickly identify and secure a consistent supply of premium Ethiopian opal rough.
