Description/Interesting Notes: A unique "purple cap" tourmaline from this classic California locale!!! There were just a few small pockets of these rare "purple cap" tourmalines from the Himalaya mine!!! In person, the purple color of the termination is significant and immediately apparent!!! The crystal's... pink color is unusually deep and intense in person as well - almost more like Stewart Mine pink!!! The crystal is a more magenta pink in person!!! The crystal has glassy luster and marked translucence!!! The termination exhibits complex surface features upon close study as well!!! A very unique and attractive color expression indeed!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
