About Bisbee Turquoise


ABOUT BISBEE TURQUOISE

The Bisbee mine, near Bisbee, Arizona, is one of the more famous of the American mines because Bisbee turquoise was one of the first put onto the market. The turquoise mine is part of the Bisbee copper mine, the main operation of the site. Bisbee turquoise has developed a reputation as a hard, finely webbed, strikingly brilliant blue stone of a high quality. The unusual matrix forms wisps or veils throughout the stone, often called "Smoky Bisbee." The highest grade of Bisbee is found at less then 100 feet, however, at Lavender Pit, good Bisbee was discovered at 2,000 feet. Bisbee is one of the most expensive turquoises because of its rarity, high density and extremely good character. Last year Phelps Dodge Mining Company declared Bisbee depleted and buried the mine under 50 feet of dirt.
