COLLECTIBLE Rare Evans Turquoise Museum Grade Mineral Specimen

Description: Extremely Rare Collectible Evans Turquoise Mineral Specimen BRIEF HISTORY OF EVANS TURQUOISE The most famous turquoise mine in Baja Mexico is the old Evans Mine in the Ensenada area along the northern coast. It is one of the few mines south of the California 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 an exquisite brown matrix to a green with a lovely gold matrix. The formations range from very thin veins of dark blue turquoise to nuggets to flat specimens. There is a limited amount of this material on the market because the mine was covered up in the 1990s making Evans turquoise harder to acquire and extremely collectible.
