A strangely, heavily etched, broken and healed, polychrome tourmaline from recent finds at the Pederneira Mine. The two broken and healed breaks are obvious in the sides of the gemmy and lustrous, green to blue-green to teal-blue crystal. The lower break has caused the crystal to bend. Three-fourths of the interior of the crystal has been etched away, as has a striking, significant portion of the side. The highly lustrous termination is scalloped. An interesting and most unusual tourmaline from the Pederneira.
