Great specimen

This Green Tourmaline on winged Muscovite with Lepidolite cluster has formed in a striking fashion. The thin Green Tourmaline lies on one wing of a flat shiny Muscovite sheet. Adjacent is a thicker protruding Lepidolite crystal that has formed at right angles and then grown more chaotically on the other side of this main sheet. This great specimen was sourced from the gem fields of Afghanistan for Rocks and Things in 2023 by Lawrence Riaz.

Lepidolite is a Lithium-rich form of Mica. It is a stone for periods of transition. It is also considered one of the best stones for emotional healing. Lepidolite has a strong relaxing, balancing and calming effect, bringing inner peace.

Green Tourmaline is a member of the Elbaite mineral family. Elbaite is an igneous mineral that usually forms in granite pegmatites. It is a complex lithium-rich borosilicate mineral. Elbaite usually forms as heavily-striated elongated rods or prismatic crystals. Elbaite can be any colour of the rainbow, and crystals can be multi-coloured. Black is rare.
