Another very difficult to find tourmaline from Southern California is this specimen from the Cota mine. The only elbaite I've seen available from this mine, the piece came out prior to 1975. The crystal has a rich dark olive green color with one of the sharpest and most unique terminations possible on a tourmaline. Ex. Ed Ruggiero and Kevin Brown collections.
