Hi. Would sure appreciate ideas on where this turquoise may have originated. What mine or area? Any ideas? Thanks so much.

… whoah… great looking stone you have…and Thanks @Steve for posting the website.
Thanks q-tea and thanks Steve for the link! Looks like it’s likely from Nevada somewhere, as green as it is.
It is difficult to tell when a stone has changed so much in color.
From skin oils and such, over time? It’s pretty dark. I tend to like lived on stones.
Yes, turquoise is a soft stone and porous. I like these kind of stones as well.
