Stone: Evans Turquoise(Stabilized)

The most famous turquoise mine in Baja Mexico is the old Evans Mine. It is one of the few mines south of the border that has yielded such a wide variety of turquoise. Evans turquoise looks much like the turquoise from some of the Nevada mines in America. The colors vary from a high blue with brown matrix to a green with exquisite gold matrix. The formations range from very thin veins of dark blue turquoise to nuggets to flat stones. There is an extremely limited amount of this material on the market because the mine was covered up in the 1990’s.
