History and location of Number 8 turquoise
Number 8 turquoise takes its name from the mine in Carlin, Nevada, where it was discovered in the early 1900s. This mine, located in the mountainous region of Eastern Nevada, an area rich in gemstone deposits, quickly became one of the most important sources of high-quality turquoise in the United States. Number 8 turquoise is particularly famous for its large nuggets and unique golden-brown to black matrix, which stands out against a brilliant powder-blue background. Although other turquoise mines have sprung up in the region, none has been able to replicate the exceptional quality and variety of colors found in Number 8 turquoise, making it a symbol of Nevada's mining heritage and the rich history of turquoise mining in the USA.
Number 8, much more than a stone



Number 8 turquoise embodies the history of mining, natural beauty and traditional craftsmanship. Today, the stone stands as a testament to the craftsmanship, culture and history of the Native Americans of the American Southwest, who have long regarded turquoise as a sacred stone endowed with spiritual powers and protection.
