@azgal  I have several Indian-made pieces of turquoise jewelry that came from the Bisbee Mine.  Wasn't it an open pit mine that has been backfilled?  The gold and silver mines were underground.


 

I went on the Queen mine tour. It was a copper mine and it was underground.Are you thinking of the sleeping beauty mine? It was a turquoise mine  and is closed now. It was in Globe Az.

Maybe there is another mine in Bisbee that I'm not aware of.
