The December birthstone Turquoise is believed to be associated with success, happiness and prosperity. Other birthstones for December are Tanzanite, Blue Zircon and Blue Topaz.

Turquoise is formed by groundwater containing copper that has seeped into the bedrock, then reacted with other minerals to form an opaque stone in shades of blues and greens. The dark lines and shapes seen in turquoise are derived from the surrounding rock where it was formed, and known as matrix.
