Colorful, doubly-terminated Tourmaline crystal from the Himalaya Mine. It has a flat, green termination at one end and steep, red termination at the other end. A classic Himalaya crystal that even has a slight bend due to fracturing and rehealing in the pocket. This was part of the collection of southern California collector Tim Sherburn. Tim bought the crystal in the UK while on a Fluorite mining trip and noted the uncommonly red coloration of the one termination (for the mine). There is a smaller side crystal attached that is also doubly-terminated. Undamaged and weighs 24.6 grams.
