Turquoise Mountain mining started in the 1970's. The color is light-to-high blue with both webbed and non-webbed matrix. Birdseye describes stones from this mine that show areas of light blue circled with darker blue matrix, resembling the eye of a bird. Even though this peak is part of the Kingman Mine, it is considered a classic mine in its own right because the turquoise is so different in appearance.
