The Fox Turquoise mine, near Lander County in Nevada was discovered in the early 1900’s. It was once Nevada’s largest producer of turquoise with some half million pounds. This mine has been closed for quite some time. In prehistoric times, indigenous peoples mined turquoise and found large nuggets. It produces a huge quantity of good quality green or blue-green stone with a distinctive matrix. The Fox mine has also been known as the Cortez mine.
