Natural Campitos Turquoise
Rough:
Turquoise from Campitos, Sonora is usually stabilized. A very tiny percentage of the rough coming from this source is solid enough to be cut and polished without any treatment. We were lucky to get a few fine specimens. Turquoise is a copper-based mineral (hydrated copper aluminum phosphate).
This material takes a fine polish with diamond followed with green rouge.
(Zam is a brand name for green rouge.)
