Item Description

A nice polychrome Tourmaline group from the most famous Tourmaline locality in Pakistan. I have seen many Tourmaline specimens from Stak Nala for many years and the one characteristic of that many of them lacked was decent color. This crystal features several colors ranging from a very light pink shade on the pyramidal termination, then a pale yellow-green color which gives way to an olive-green color, and a very dark (almost black) green hue on the other end. Attached minor Albite (var: Cleavelandite) can be seen on the side as well. Found in 2011.
