Superb transparent parallel grown Tourmaline crystals from recent finds in the Congo. Congolese Tourmaline can get very transparent and this is a great example of that quality - transparent and glass-like for it's entire length. The color is an unusual golden yellow, slightly reddish at the base and slightly green at the termination. Undamaged and weighs 2.64 grams.
