A rare matrix specimen of tourmaline from the Jonas Mine, from the world-famous pocket of 1978 that is still the most important and famous single tourmaline strike in all of history. And, unequaled to this day, these tourmalines of a distinct style stand out in any collection or museum. Featuring an approximately 2-inch crystal, doubly terminated and frozen in enclosing crystallized lepidolite, this is a classic representation of the find. Few matrix specimens can be had, today, making this a rare prize. This specimen came to me in an exchange with the Sorbonne for a truly outstanding Tsumeb tennantite specimen from the Asselborn Collection. Further information will be provided to the buyer
