Example Pictures are not necessarily the highest of grade, rather a good example of a common look from a particular mine.

Kennecot - Bingham

Kennecot Turquoise is a bi-product of the Kennecot Copper Mine in Utah. This turquoise mine didn't produce much highgrade turquoise. Most of what we have, and have cut is pretty soft and a light blue/green color.

Snowville Varascite Cab

Utah Varascite

This is some of the world's best Varascite. Alot of this material comes from Fairfield, Utah.

Little Green Monster Mine

This is what is commonly know as Fairfield Varascite. This mine was open in the 50s and is said to be closed and no longer contain Varascite.

Snowville

Absolutely stunning Varascite. This material looks closer to Nevada Varascite then it does to Utah Varascite. Rumor has it that this claim is on an old rancher's land.

Lucin
