Description
Mined in Mexico near the city of Cananea this turquoise is relatively new to the industry. Unlike most turquoise, Sonoran Gold is not mined in veins but rather as individual nuggets typically found in clay deposits. Accents of blue and gold against a green background make
Sonoran Gold Turquoise a great selection for statement jewelry. Sonoran Gold Turquoise is prized for its vibrant green and blue hues, often with a golden or brown matrix. Unlike many other turquoise varieties, it can feature a striking mix of both green and blue in the same stone.
This turquoise is known for having a higher silica content than many other types, giving it a naturally harder composition and a slightly waxy luster even before stabilization.
Since Sonoran Gold Turquoise is a relatively new find and is not as widely available as other turquoise varieties it has limited supply. The distinctive appearance makes it a sought-after choice for jewelry designers.
