Tourmaline

Tourmaline is a subgroup of minerals that belong to the group of boron-containing aluminosilicates. Tourmaline got its name from the Sinhalese word "turmali", which means "multi-colored stone of the magicians". In addition, depending on the location and color, tourmaline is also called dravite, siberite, achroite, rubellite, schorl, indigolite and paraboite. The color of tourmaline depends on its composition. Moreover, some tourmalines of green, raspberry-red, yellow, blue colors, as well as polychrome coloring and absolute transparency are classified as precious stones. The rest are considered ornamental. Tourmaline deposits can be found in Russia, Sri Lanka, the USA, Madagascar and Canada. Green, red and blue tourmalines, which are mined in Brazil, even received their own name: "Brazilian rubies", "Brazilian emeralds" and "Brazilian sapphires".
