It\'s a gem mined from the Cerbat Mountains in Mohave County and is part of the Kingman mining operations. This beautiful stone, similar to Kingman turquoise, usually boasts a gorgeous sky-blue shade but stands out for its heavier pyrite inclusions. What makes it unique is the pyrite, while other turquoises might have pyrite, in Ithaca Peak, it\'s more of a striking brassy color. That\'s a neat trick to tell it apart from others like Morenci turquoise. The rich color and the way the pyrite blends in give it a distinct look, making it a hot favorite for stunning, one-of-a-kind jewelry that just screams elegance and authenticity.
