Collection: White Buffalo & Wild Horse - Turquoise Rough

WHITE BUFFALO

White buffalo is mined in Nevada. 

It’s known as white buffalo turquoise but it’s actually magnesite. While similar to turquoise in its structure and formation, its stunning white and black color is due to the lack of heavy metals like copper, iron and zinc, which are responsible for the characteristic blues, greens and yellows found in turquoise.

With only a single mine in existence the value continues to increase as the resources are depleted.

WILD HORSE 

Wild horse is also a magnesite.

Commonly referred to as the “Appaloosa stone” . 

This stone that was discovered in the mid-90's near the Globe copper mine southern Arizona and only comes from there. Only a few years after the mine was opened, they closed it again, so any material on the market today has been stashed away by original buyers and miners.
