Turquoise
is a copper oxide, often occurring in or near copper deposits.
The color depends upon the amounts of copper and iron, which will
determine whether it has a more blue or green colour. Many of
the turquoise cabochons listed below come from locations here
in the United States, making them rare, as many mines throughout
the US have been closed down for quite some time. Please see individual
item descriptions for origin and characteristics.
