Etched bi-color (pink and green) Tourmaline from the Himalaya Mine. This is a really neat specimen, complete and undamaged with etched surfaces all around, except for the origianl flat termination faces atop the green end. Even white Albite crystals along the side show etching. The pink portion is translucent and the green portion shows transparency.
