Peruvian turquoise, often known scientifically as Chrysocolla, is a vibrant blue-green, copper-based mineral found in the Andes Mountains of Peru, particularly in the Ica region. It is prized for its intense, natural color and is distinct from traditional, softer turquoise, often sourced from the Lilly Mine near Pisco.
