Elbaite -gem clear crystal
As recorded:
Pederneira Mine, Sao Jose da Safira, Doce Valley, Minas Gerais, Brazil
42mm x 8mm x 5mm
A clear sharp pair of parallel crystals with slight hint of zoning. Pretty much all gem grade, undamaged and cleanly terminated, this is an affordable and attractive Tourmaline. Since the crystals are rather flat they also transmit light well and are brilliant with any backlight. From finds at the famed Pederneira in 2009.
