Tourmaline with Albite Var. 'Cleavelandite'

This is an extremely classy and very distinctive Elbaite tourmaline from the famous early 21st century finds at Stak Nala, Haramosh Mountains, Skardu District, Baltistan, Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan. This very pleasing grouping of parallel stepped Tourmaline crystals with well-developed platy crystals of Albite variety Cleavelandite really does present very nicely, especially with backlighting. The tourmaline crystals reach 4 cm in length and grade from dark green upwards towards their terminations into a vibrant gemmy green, with a 1 mm thick termination cap of colourless-pink. The terminations of the tourmaline crystals are pinacoids with shallow pyramidal 'corners'. A great specimen of multiple Tourmaline crystals from Pakistan.
