Description

This is a fine miniature specimen of Tourmaline with Quartz and Cleavelandite from the renowned Stak Nala locality in the Haramosh Mountains, Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan. A single, well-formed green-cap tourmaline crystal rises aesthetically from a matrix of clear quartz and delicate, snow-white cleavelandite blades. The tourmaline shows a deep green termination that fades into a nearly black core toward the base, creating a striking visual gradient. The combination of contrasting colors, sharp crystal form, and balanced composition highlights this locality’s classic mineral associations and zoning characteristics. Well-crystallized and thoughtfully arranged, this piece is a strong representative example from Stak Nala.
