Item Description

A nice matrix Tourmaline specimen with Ablite from the most famous Tourmaline locality in Pakistan. The main crystal on this specimen measures 2.4 cm and features a few colors ranging from a rich green hue to a slight beautiful yellow-green color which gives way to an olive-green color, with a very dark green (nearly black) hue throughout the rest of the prism. A secondary crystal (unterminated) is nearly completely black. Secondary crystals of Albite and blades of the "Cleavelandite" variety can be seen on the front and back of the piece.
