Size: 4.0x1.9x1.6 cm
Species: Tourmaline
Locality: Anjanabonoina pegmatites, Ambohimanambola, Betafo District, Vakinankaratra, Madagascar
Description: A double terminated, gemmy tourmaline from Madagascar that backlights to show zones of red, green, and faint purple. Lustrous, sharply terminated on one end, and a flat matte termination on the other. There is a small quartz on the side and termination, and an impression on one side near the base. I note a spot of damage near the impression, and a couple very minor dings elsewhere that do not detract.
