Purple Kingman Mine Turquoise? Or "Purple Mojave" Turquoise | |||||

We all know no Turquoise comes out of the ground looking like this. It's clearly colorized, But there are those offering large nuggests for like $36.00. In my estimation this would be impossible. If it was all genuine Kingman turquoise, mined in that mine and only "colorized" it would cost a fortune.
I believe its a composite. Mostly resin, color and bronze with a VERY small % of actual Kingman turquoise, (either crushed or very small nuggets ixed in) if any.
What do you all think? I doubt even colorized Howlite would come this cheap.
