Item Description
This specimen features a predominant, excellent quality, shortened/flattened gemmy green, lustrous crystal of Uvite Tourmaline with smaller Uvites of equal quality on gemmy, white/colorless Magnesite crystals. The quality is great for the species, and the main Uvite (which measures 1.4 cm across) is very aesthetically flaring out of the matrix, as opposed to laying flat against the Magnesite like so many other specimens from this mine. A beautiful toenail of this rare Tourmaline species.
