Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these tourmaline crystals suitable for faceting?
Yes. This lot includes facet-grade rough with transparent to Si to VVS clarity pieces. Individual crystal size is under 1 gram, yielding small size tourmaline loose stones.
Q: What is the difference between green tourmaline and indicolite?
Green tourmaline gets its color from iron and chromium, while indicolite is the blue-to-blue-green variety colored primarily by iron. Both are present in this lot and are natural, untreated.
Q: Is Afghan tourmaline considered high quality?
Afghanistan is a recognized source of fine tourmaline, particularly from the Kunar and Nuristan provinces. Afghan material is known for its color saturation and crystal clarity, making it sought after by lapidaries and collectors.
