Item Description
A beautiful thumbnail sized GEM crystal of lovely greenish-blue colored Tourmaline from the Mawi pegmatite in Afghanistan. The crystal is undamaged, save the base where it detached from the pocket wall. The trigonal termination has gentle frosted faces, while the prism faces of the crystal are slick and glistening. The most interesting aspect of the crystal is that is has an indentation along one side, which is a natural formation that occurred when presumably the crystal formed around either another Tourmaline or possibly a Quartz crystal. A really cool little crystal of this classic material.
