We've been interested in turquoise for a long time but hesitated as so much of it is treated and stabilized.  We were approached by one of our gem dealers about a new find of turquoise in Zambia which is completely untreated.  It is really nice color that goes from classic lighter turquoise color to a vivid greenish color.  It has a rocky and veiny exterior so similar to opal you don't know what is inside it until you start cutting.
