Bluecap Tourmaline

A very richly colored, bluecapped tourmaline from the now famous and unobtainable pockets of the late 1990s at this remote mine. These bluecaps were the hit of the tourmaline market at the time, and no more have been found there to this day. I have seen them selling by the gram in some places, at quite a bit higher prices. These Jack obtained from the first selection of material when it came out, with the thickest caps of blue, richest color, and least damage. Much of what came to the market later was secondary in quality to these specimens.
