OPAL ASSOCIATION NEWS LETTER
To all our members we wish you all a safe and happy Christmas.
Our industry is still has a lot of positive vibes and confidence in it with more exploration in most fields so with a lower dollar more sales can be achieved.
OPAL CERTIFICATES
We have closed the ability for members to print there own certificates from our web site. This is to prevent abuse of the certificate system. We have formed a sub committee to look at making a test for members to do before they can issue them . We are also getting legal advice so members are responsible for issuing there certificates. There is a lot of demand from members for this service so we hope to be able to present to members early in the new year our recommendations.
