| 14btadns ((ELBAITE TOURMALINE, LEPIDOLITE)), Fluorescent, $10 MINIMUM BID, Black Rapids Glacier, Delta River District, Southeast Fairbanks Borough, Alaska, 11 x 9 x 8 cm, Cabinet | |
 | Here is an Elbaite from Alaska. The green is not fluorescent but the pink is Fluorescent. It is from a one time helicopter trip with some side collecting at the cost of about $2000 a flat. So no more specimens are likely to ever be collected. I just found a couple of these which I thought all the fluorescent buyers had bought out at Tucson last year. This year my associate that did the actual collecting brought me a dozen larger specimens that again sold well in Tucson. This specimen has a few Tourmalines in the specimen. These tourmalines are not overly large compared with the rest of the specimen. |
