Tourmaline from Afghanistan

striking natural tourmaline crystal specimen embedded in a pale pladicifar/feldspar matrix, featuring multiple lustrous green to yellowish-green tourmaline crystals with strong vertical striations and well-developed prismatic forms. The crystals show attractive natural growth patterns, with several crystals intersecting and forming an eye-catching cluster across the matrix.

The contrast between the vivid green tourmaline and the light-colored matrix gives this specimen a distinctive mineral-collector appearance. Several crystals display sharp edges, pronounced striations, and natural terminations, while the matrix provides an authentic record of the specimen’s original growth environment.
