Sonoran Mountain
This turquoise is mined in Mexico near the city of Cananea. This material is relatively new to the industry and is a newer deposit in the Cananea mines. Unlike most turquoise, Sonoran Gold is not mined in veins but as individual nuggets typically found in clay deposits. The material comes in aqua blue, lime green, and a two-tone blue and green color. It features a beautiful golden to brown matrix. The high grade is a beautiful two-tone that fades from baby blue to lime green and features a yellow spider web matrix. The turquoise is soft, and most of it is stabilized or treated with the Zachary process. Once treated, it is extremely durable.
