One of several in an update here from recent finds (2024), this is at first a classic Stak Nala style of tourmaline association in that it is wrapped in a blanket or nest of albite and cleavelandite. However, it is a bit unusual compared to older finds for the open green color, and an association with a stunning, sharp lepidolite crystal (to 4cm) that adds a unique balance and composition to the piece. The tourmaline is to 7 cm, and goes through from top to bottom. No repairs or restorations.
