Jerry,

    Check out the Rock and Gem Sept 1991 issue...it tells you all about
    it. Essentially it is a variety of stone that is a cross between
    variscite and turquoise. It apparently comes from Utah and one of the
    earlier people to work with it was Nathan Bullock of Ogden. I have
    never worked any of it, at least not that I know of as I do a lot of
    variscite and turquoise but the pics on the cover of that R&G are
    quite nice. 

    Cheers from Don at The Charles Belle Studio in SOFL where simple
    elegance IS fine jewelry! dcdietz AT comcast.net
