Cuprian Elbaite 🇧🇷
Batalha Mine, São José da Batalha, Borborema Province, Paraiba, Brazil
Cabinet, Item No: S21-0008
Just look at this huge and even terminated rare paraiba tourmaline! It is nicely embedded in pegmatite matrix. It is not a gemmy crystal but in terms of rareness and size this specimen really stands out the crowd! This material is also barely seen on the common market since this mines have already closed longer time ago.
Crystals on Matrix, 12.2 × 5.5 × 5.0 cm
