Hubei Mines Closing.

Fire Mountain Gems recently published an article about China's decision to close some of its Hubei turquoise mines. I'd love to hear more about this and what you think about it. Hubei produces a variety of colors of turquoise. I wonder how much this will affect the supply and prices. Those of you in the turquoise business, what are your thoughts? I'm wondering if i should stock up at Tucson or whether prices will be higher by then. What else have you heard? An illustration of some of the Hubei turquoise I bought last year.
