More Info On loose diamond chips

Tourmalines consist of ten mineral species and only three of them are considered
to be gems. They are part of a crystal system that produces long prisms of a
columnar shape. They range from slender to thick densities, and appear in
triangular cross-sections. Tourmaline has a three-sided prism which is unique in
the world of gems. There is a large range of colors among the tourmaline family
of stones. According to ancient Egyptian lore the tourmaline made a long journey
from the center of the earth and on its way it passed over a rainbow and
absorbed and the colors. Collectors still refer to it as the "gemstone of the
rainbow". The colors range from red to green and blue to yellow, and very often
sport multiple hues. Some colors change when exposed to artificial light.
Tourmaline also has unusual electrical qualitities. It collects fine dust when
it is subjected to artificial light sources. Each tourmaline has a different
appearance, and consequently there is one that suits each individual buyer. For
this reason the ancients claimed that it had magical powers. They said it
promoted long-lasting love and friendship.
