A lot of This material has a slight blue tint to it, and it looks a lot like Dry Creek turquoise from the Godber mine. The other look of This material is very similar to the White Buffalo Calcite look. Good stuff if you like the white turquoise look, cuts nicely. This stone makes wild turquoise jewelry, more fitting to silver jewelry than gold jewelry. White Creek Turquoise is some of the rarest and least known Turquoise to have come out of Nevada. The White Creek Turquoise has many different looks to it and may have many more.

It is certain much of the White Creek Turquoise has been used in jewelry and called White Buffalo Turquoise or "White Turquoise".
