Royston Turquoise comes from the Royston mining district located near Tonopah, Nevada and has been mined since the early 1900s. "Royston Turquoise" originally consisted of four old Turquoise claims located within the Royston range: Bunker Hill, Easter Blue, Oscar Wehrend, and Royal Blue. The Royston mine produces some very beautiful turquoise ranging in color from a deep sky blue to dark greens. Often the colors mix together in the same stone with its iconic golden brown mottled or webbed matrix. The mine currently produces some very high-grade material, but in limited quantities.
