Jonas Mine, Conselheiro Pena, Doce valley, Minas Gerais, Southeast Region, Brazil 5.0 x 0.8 x 0.7 cm. Fine elbaites from the Jonas Mine are rarely seen in dealer stocks today, briefly available only in the late 1970s just after they came out from a now-infamous 1978 pocket. This slender, transparent crystal is gorgeous…classic in color and with the typical transparency and glassiness of a Jonas piece. Almost all have the same ... |

Admittedly, this crystal has an outer rind of opaque tourmaline around and is covered with quartz crystals, but ... |
