Lander Blue礦坑：Rita J. Hapgood是一個在battle Mountain的內華達酒吧的酒杯經銷商，1973年他在印第安河進行野餐是發現了這個綠松石礦坑。當她撿起一個鳥窩時發現一些她沒見過的黑色帶有藍色斑點的石頭。她使用一個咖啡館收集了一些礦石，並在不久後，她使用Mary Louise Lode Mining（瑪麗·路易絲礦脈）申請了採礦權並進行了命名。在那年晚些時候，她將這個礦坑賣給了Marvin Syme和Henry Dorian。他們聯合建立了Lander Blue綠松石公司。使用由Bob Johnson提供的舊的拖拉機和壓縮機，這對生意夥伴對這個礦坑進行了大約一年的開採，直到這個礦坑的綠松石被開採盡。

Lander Blue：Rita J. Hapgood, a blackjack dealer at the nevada Club at Battle Mountain, discovered this turquoise deposit in 1973 while picnicking at Indian Creek. Drawn to a bird's nest, she also noticed some unusual black rocksl studded with blue dots that were like none she had ever seen before. She collected some of these nuggets in a coffee can and later claimed the site as the Mary Louise Lode Mining Claim.

Later that year, she sold her claim to Marvin Syme and Henry Dorian, who formend the Lander Blue Turquoise Corporation. With an old tractor and a compressor contributed by Bob Johnson, the partners worked he claim for a year until the deposit of extraordinary turquoise ran out.

Lander Blue was a "hat mine", so called because you could cover it with a hat. Today, this rarest of all Southwestern turquoise "classics" is also of the highest grade and thus, pound for pound, the most waluable truquoise in the world.
