The Kingman Turquoise Mine is one of the oldest and highest producing Turquoise Mines in America. It was originally discovered by prehistoric Indians well over 1000 years ago. Kingman Turquoise is known for its beautiful sky blue color and produces many variations of blue Turquoise. The Kingman Turquoise mine also produces green Turquoise from the Turquoise Mountain side of the mine. Kingman Turquoise has been the biggest supplier of Turquoise to the Southwestern Turquoise industry for nearly as long as the American Turquoise Industry industry has existed. In fact, the Kingman Turquoise mine was once part of a Turquoise boom around 1000 AD when the Mayan culture was using a lot of Turquoise for self adornments and ceremonial items. Today, as in the old times, blue Turquoise from Kingman, Arizona is most popular, even though the mine produces all colors of Turquoise and Purple Turquoise is almost becoming blue Turquoise's equal in popularity these days.

Throughout history, turquoise has been attributed with a range of meanings and symbolism. This stone has often been associated with protection, luck, and abundance. In many cultures, it is believed that wearing turquoise can ward off negative energies and bring good fortune.
