Tourmaline
Himalaya Mine, Mesa Grande, San Diego County, California
74mm x 35mm x 23mm
Another stunning crystal for the Himalaya mine with INTENSE color. It has almost a purpley-maroon color saturation in fluorescent lighting (although these go paler in Halogen lighting). The crystal is complete all around and doubly-terminated, and masses 88 grams. This is a choice crystal, which Bill Larson mined in the 1980s from his own mine and kept in this collection ever since. The cleavelandite accents really give it a matrixy character. It can be displayed two ways: It sits upright on the flat termination, or can be mounted in a base with the pointed termination down - either way, impactful on display. from the same pocket as PTOURM-02. ex Pala Intl company collection$4200
