GODBER BURHAM TURQUOISE
The Godber Burnham mine, discovered in 1932, is located east of Austin, Nevada. First claimed under the name “Last Chance”, it was later sold to Frank Burnham and then in 1934 to Walter Godber. It is said that during his short time owning the mine, he pulled out over "100,000" worth of turquoise, before selling it to Godber. The Godber mine was mined underground for the majority of its early years. The mine is now owned and operated by Bruce and Jeri Woods. The turquoise coming from this claim can have an unusual coloring due to the high aluminum content, creating a light blue to white turquoise. The mine has also produced turquoises in a color range from light to deep blues, and some greens. This is considered a quality turquoise, hard, with beautiful color.
