ROCK FACTS:


KINGMAN TURQUOISE

The Kingman Turquoise Mine is one of the oldest and highest producing Turquoise Mines in America. It was originally discovered by prehistoric Indians well over 1000 years ago. Kingman Turquoise is known for its beautiful sky-blue color and produces many variations of blue order Turquoise. The Kingman Turquoise mine also produces green Turquoise from the Turquoise Mountain side of the mine. The Kingman Turquoise mine was once part of a turquoise boom around 1000 AD when the Mayan culture was using a lot of Turquoise for self-adornments and ceremonial items. Today, as in the old times, blue Turquoise from Kingman, Arizona is king, even though the mine produces all colors of Turquoise and green Turquoise is almost becoming blue, Turquoise's equal in popularity these days.
