Erongo Region, Namibia
Here we have a wonderful large, red-orange Tourmaline, wrapped in light purple Lepidolite mica, from the Otjua mine in Namiba. This piece is likely from a find dating to the 1980s. The tourmaline has some great luster, especially for this find.
This is a great piece for any tourmaline collector, especially one looking for special finds from localities less often seen on the market.
