Description
Tourmaline is a boron silicate mineral with a wide range of colors and an appealing crystal structure.
In Pakistan there is a small cut stone industry. The native stones tend to not be the highest quality, but that can be a good thing. There has always been a market for cheap gems.
There are many spots in the world that have been renowned for millennia for their interesting mineral specimens.
Over the decades I’ve been selling collectibles my market has been about 97% coins, 2% paper money, 1% everything else.
