I'm not sure how much it is worth but my guess is not a whole lot. This is because on the Mohs scale of hardness(diamond being 10) it ranks only a 5. This means it can chip. The best quality turquoise is clear blue with no veins or brown spots. Even still u can buy a top quality 16mm bead for $10 each. I usually only make jewelry with gems that have a hardness of 7 or higher. However the colour of turquoise is beautiful and I'm considering using it. Also if u looking to purchase turquoise make sure it is stabilized turquoise.It has been treated to harden it. Also-"African turquoise"is not turquoise- it is jasper.
