2754dligs TOURMALINE, CLEVELANDITE, LEPIDOLITE, $275 MINIMUM BID, Repaired, Chapadinha Mine, Minas Gerais, Brazil, 7 x 7 x 6 cm, Cabinet | |
This is a very attractive specimen. The main Tourmaline crystal is 9 cm in lenth and terminated. The repair is half way where the crystal was reattached. Very difficult to tell if you are not aware of it or not looking. But not hid either. You can see the small tell tale crack with a loop or even with you eye if you know its there. Still a showy Tourmaline specimen with associated purple Lepidolite, white Clevelandite, and many smaller Tourmaline crystals along with the 9 cm terminated crystal. |
