Sonoran Pendant

Bar necklace with 10 Sonoran stones. Each of them unique in their own way.

Sonora Turquoise, like the White Water Turquoise, originates from the Campitos mine located on the Campitos Mountain outside of Cananea, Sonora, Mexico. This mine has been in production since the 1980’s. Campitos turquoise, including the Sonora Turquoise, is unique in many ways. The most impressive of which is the way it is
mined. Most turquoise is mined from veins found in the surrounding stone. Turquoise from the Campitos Mountain is
often found in clay deposits as nuggets. Sonora Turquoise tends to have a brilliant green color with a matrix of brown and traces of pyrite which add a special sparkle to the stones.
