Green Tourmaline with Quartz- Aricanga Mine | River Walkers Minerals

A bright, gemmy green tourmaline crystal hosting a perfectly perched quartz point from the famous Aricanga Mine, Tunnel 2. The tourmaline stands upright with sharp, well-defined faces, a cute “key” on the back, and fine vertical striations, giving it great presence for its size. At the termination, a perfect clear quartz crystal grows at an angle, creating a fun contrast of color and form.

This is the kind of small specimen that still reads beautifully in a case or on a desktop — clean, aesthetic, and mineralogically classic for Aricanga.
