his 17.8g Indicolite crystal is a standout for collectors who appreciate the raw, unadulterated beauty of Himalayan minerals. The crystal displays the deep, sought-after indigo-blue saturation that defines the rare Indicolite variety, complemented by a vitreous luster and characteristic vertical striations.
What makes this piece a "Rare Mineral" find is the natural matrix inclusion. Unlike a standard "clean" crystal, this specimen contains a portion of its original host environment, providing a beautiful contrast between the gem-quality blue tourmaline and the organic texture of the matrix. At 31mm in length, it is a robust and dense specimen, making it an excellent addition to a specialized collection focused on inclusions or the unique geology of Afghanistan.
