Stone: Sonoran Gold Turquoise is an interesting turquoise from Sonora, Mexico near Nogales Arizona and it's neighbor Nogales Mexico which is the Northernmost point in Mexico. The series of mines bearing this name are on several sites contingent to the American border. Very little hard natural material has been mined here. Most has needed stabilizing to be useful. The high grade natural material is a medium blue or often medium lime green to dark green. This is usually accompanied by iron pyrite, or brown matrix. The high-grade turuqoise from this mine is rare and is considered both esoteric and valuable.
