Like many of the tourmalines we selected from this large discovery, when they went to Europe for cleaning and we were able to pick some up about a year ago in 2021, this crystal has some unique qualities. It is just somehow sharper, more dramatic, and more "modern" looking if that makes sense. It looks carved, on top. elbaite crystal has a glassy and gemmy, bright apple green hue at the termination, a glassy and gemmy colorless center and a translucent, rose pink color at the base. The mass is 51.7 grams.
