Tourmaline is a captivating and diverse group of boron silicate minerals that come in a stunning array of colors, making it a favorite among mineral collectors. This complex mineral can be found in shades ranging from deep black and vibrant green to striking pink and electric blue, often displaying unique color zoning within individual crystals. Tourmaline typically crystallizes in a hexagonal structure and is known for its durability, with wide use in jewelry.  Found in a variety of geological settings, including granitic pegmatites and metamorphic rocks, tourmaline is not only prized for its beauty but also for its interesting properties, including piezoelectricity. Its rich diversity and visual appeal make it a must-have specimen for any serious collection.
