In the 1940's, Dowell Ward purchased \u0026amp; developed the old Cortez claims. Turquoise from this mine comes under several different names including Fox, White Horse, Green Tree and Smith, to differentiate the different deposits and colors and to create a larger perceived share of the turquoise market. Color range is from a soft sky blues, sometimes with a subtle water-marked matrix, to blue-green to green. While quite a bit of this material came out in nugget form, there is also large seam material, sometimes as thick as two inches.

The mine is located at Campitos Mountain, just outside of Cananea, Sonora, Mexico, only about 35 miles from the Arizona border. The local economy is heavily dependent on the large copper mines in the area, with turquoise often being a by-product of these operations. Several varieties of turquoise are produced in the region, with Campitos Turquoise being the most prominent. This turquoise has been mined for centuries and traded northward through Native American trade routes. Sonoran turquoise is unique in that it is typically found in clay deposits as nuggets, rather than in veins like many other types of turquoise. The Sonoran mine is known for producing a range of turquoise varieties, including Sonoran Gold, which is admired for its vibrant colors such as aqua blue, lime, bright green, and a mix of blue and green, often with a golden to brown matrix. Sonoran Rose is a natural bright blue turquoise, hand-mined from newer deposits, while Sonoran Blue is prized for its hardness on the Mohs scale, as well as its shiny pyrite flakes and black oxide veins. Just like most turquoise, however, Sonoran turquoise is relatively soft, which is why a significant portion of it is treated or stabilized to enhance its durability for use in jewelry and other applications.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"stonesnsilver","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49853220552981,"sku":"BST1905","price":79.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0023\/2901\/8480\/files\/sonoran-mountain-turquoise-mex-4x6mm-oval-bead-strand-16-inch-sonora-gold-596.png?v=1780520198"},{"product_id":"green-campitos-turquoise-mexico-5mm-funky-bead-mix-rondelle-heishi-and-nuggets-9-inch-strand-copy","title":"Campitos Turquoise (Mexico) With Pyrite Matrix Large Focal Nugget Bead Strand, 7 Beads","description":"\u003cp\u003eCampitos Turquoise (Mexico) With Pyrite Matrix Large Focal Nugget Bead Strand, 7 Beads\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e12x17mm-16x27mm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"stonesnsilver","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49864082260245,"sku":"BST1940","price":66.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0023\/2901\/8480\/files\/campitos-turquoise-mexico-with-pyrite-matrix-large-focal-nugget-bead-strand-7-beads-357.png?v=1779288250"},{"product_id":"campitos-turquoise-mexico-with-pyrite-matrix-large-focal-nugget-bead-strand-7-beads-copy","title":"Campitos Turquoise (Mexico) With Pyrite Matrix Large Focal Nugget Bead Strand, 7 Beads","description":"\u003cp\u003eCampitos Turquoise (Mexico) With Pyrite Matrix Large Focal Nugget Bead Strand, 7 Beads \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e12x15mm-15x20mm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"stonesnsilver","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49864100577557,"sku":"BST1941","price":59.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0023\/2901\/8480\/files\/campitos-turquoise-mexico-with-pyrite-matrix-large-focal-nugget-bead-strand-7-beads-140.png?v=1776024055"},{"product_id":"deep-blue-sleeping-beauty-turquoise-az-smooth-nugget-beads-7x5-10x6mm-5-inch-strand-27-beads-copy","title":"Deep Blue Sleeping Beauty Turquoise (AZ) Smooth Nugget Bead Focal Strand 7-16mm, 6 Inch Strand\/28 Beads","description":"\u003cp\u003eDeep Blue Sleeping Beauty Turquoise (AZ) Smooth Nugget Beads 7-16mm, 6 Inch Strand\/28 Beads\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is beautiful deep saturated Blue, High Quality Sleeping Beauty.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStabilized\/No Color Added Guaranteed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis turquoisde in mined in Arizonona and Cut in the USA! It is super rare to be able to get Turquoise beads, cut in the USA.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSleeping Beauty Mine located in Globe, Arizona is considered to be one of the most important turquoise producing mines in the world.
