Elbaite - Indicolite (Ref: 17.1-549)
Barra do Salinas Mining District, Coronel Murta, Minas Gerais, Brazil
49mm x 35mm x 34mm
minID: QC4-AWD
$1450
A complex dark Tourmaline crystal that when backlit explodes with an intense deep indigo blue with a zone of green on the edges. From old finds at the remarkable locality of Barra do Salinas which is well known for very colorful and often deeply etched gem crystals. This specimen is the termination of complex prism, the faces are lustrous and the overall weight is 78 Grams, nearly all of good gem grade. There is old edge chipping most of which has been recrystallized, but despite the imperfections the color and luster make this a striking piece. Without any backlighting this is fairly dark and may look like a schorl at first, but when well lit the color is outstanding. Data last checked on 19th Jan 2022 - specimen may no longer be available
