Description:A striking, unusually shaped, doubly terminated, tourmaline from the famous Himalaya Mine. Most of the gemmy and lustrous, well-striated, crystal is the classic "Himalaya pink". Both ends have olive-green/yellow zones. The striking, overgrown, U-shaped, "glacial valley" is the negative impression of a tourmaline crystal, that formerly rested there. The other termination was broken by pocket forces, healed and regrew. Uncommon, older material from this noted locale. 61 grams.
