A very richly colored, blue-capped tourmaline from the now famous and unobtainable pockets of the late 1990s at this remote mine. These blue-caps were the hit of the tourmaline market at the time, and no more have been found there to this day. These Jack obtained from the first selection of material when it came out, with the thickest caps of blue, richest color, and least damage. Ex. Jack Halpern Collection.
