Thank you buyers, so now I am only selling off the smaller pieces not quite the image sizes now around half that in size but the weight is still there and quality great no compromise there! You will be super happy as well to make cabs from this material, fill jars, decorate, crush and create inlay,so many options and no waste in the stones since the entire stone is BEAUTIFUL.  A lot of of this seafloor mixed with copper theramal washes that chemically altered the host stone and formed an amazing agatized Drusy Quartz trapped display of Turquoise matrix and secondary copper minerals.
THis is virtually beryllium rich soils mixed with heavy metals that lend to sometimes sea creatures shapes in my larger specimen. HISTORY ___ The earth subducted and fell, then it cracked and volcanic action spawned
Orogeny
, AKA -
mountains this folded the earth and with the cracked mantle - the mix of soups below spewed out gem bearing fluids, some that didn't melt at all, injected into soft sands or host rocks and cushioned and frozen in time by a jasper, limonite, cuprite, granite, that completely pseudo morphed into a crusty hard 5-7 Mohs blue copper bearing mineral of sorts.
Batholith:
The ocean is below us in many places washing around and finding ways to exit even out and up to ground level in desert environments. This is a reaction to
well erosion mostly on coast lines also,
the earth crust cracking, tectonic movement, and well who knows maybe some persuasion aso, one can't be sure.
Overall the earth event is
called a batholith.
Crystals:
you find in my material is due to the mantle releasing a porphyry magic fluid of ingredients that make the earth elements react, aluminum, nickel, iron, copper. There are several stages of evolution of copper minerals that age over time.
Some feel good info about the materials.
Druse Turquoise that is translucent and crystal matrix.
California Turquoise is as rare as steak without propane. Not as common as Nevada or Arizona. Video shows sparkle at end. This particular blend is all crystal Turquoise some Chalcosiderite. This wild blend can contain a host of copper secondaries. I mined all my materials personally. Deposit from Mojave California.
Very hard to find, unique patterns and colors from California deposits. Some offer a perfect flower burst of Malachite within the fused copper secondaries. This material stands out because the saturation is richer than common finds, and fused by micro-crystalline quartz druse. Making this blend harder than normal and shiny and bright once final polished. Majority of the Turquoise materials are translucent which makes this material stand above the rest which are country rock in nature. This is crystal gem rock that has an amazing color display.
This
won't
last in my possession once people identify the real value.
