As I stated before, Malagasy tourmaline is amongst the most vibrantly colored in the world.  The color of this specimen rivals that of the specimens from the 1978 Jonas Mine Pocket in Brazil, and its depth surpasses anything that I have seen from Afghanistan. 

The crystal is terminated, and very gemmy.
