I bought this Les Hill Navajo Turquoise Ring on eBay last September. I assume it’s from the Royston mine or maybe Emerald Valley, but don’t know for sure. I just had the ring resized and polished, so it looks better than these photos from last year.

@Brogie That’s a good looking ring. I’m not sure if it’s green Royston turquoise, though. I’m thinking more along the lines of green Kingman turquoise. But, that’s only my opinion. It’s often challenging to identify where turquoise was mined unless you have good provenance for it.

It totally looks like turquoise to me. No guess from me on the mine, although when I looked at his stuff online he appears to work often with Kingman, so I think @Patina may be right.
