CARICO LAKE TURQUOISE HAS BEEN MINED FROM PREHISTORIC TIMES TO TODAY. THIS MATERIAL COMES IN ALMOST EVERY SHADE OF BLUE AND GREEN, INCLUDING LIME GREEN, THAT YOU CAN IMAGINE. THE FANTASTIC RANGE OF COLORS AND PATTERNS HAS MADE IT A FAVORITE WITH JEWELRY ARTISTS AND COLLECTORS THE WORLD OVER. THE MINE IS LOCATED SOUTH OF BATTLE MOUNTAIN, NV. THE ROUGH WAS PURCHASED DIRECTLY FROM THE CURRENT MINE OWNER, ERNIE MONTOYA AND IS ALL NATURAL WITH NO TREATMENTS OR STABILIZATION. THE CAB HAS BEEN BACKED, WHICH IS COMMON FOR TURQUOISE. I BELIEVE THE ARTIST USED JB WELD FOR THE BACKING MATERIAL. VERY PRETTY BLUE WITH NICELY CONTRASTING MATRIX. WILL MAKE A PRETTY PIECE OF JEWELRY. THERE IS A FRACTURE, VISIBLE IN TOP OF CAB IN FIRST PHOTO. THIS CAB MEASURES APPROXIMATELY 23mm x 21mm AND IS ABOUT 3mm HIGH. WEIGHT IS 16 CARATS.
