A very large, remarkably UNREPAIRED (90% of them are repaired) cluster of tourmaline from the Pederneira, weighing 225 grams and almost all of it tourmaline! The terminations are complete, though it should be noted that it appears the cluster broke off of the pocket wall at some point, causing a few of the crystals to break at the terminations, but then they naturally healed in the pocket and new tourmaline growth formed over to restore a more or less even cap on them - so they ARE technically terminated, even if some of them have a slightly rough look to them. 13.6 x 6.5 x 5.4 cm
