- $14 Gem Queen Claim, Whitehall, Jefferson County, Montana Miniature - 4.1 x 3.3 x 3.1 cm 29 grams Specimen status: Reserved What does Reserved mean? Send an email with specimen number to order
Semi-lustrous,
black tourmaline crystals to 2 cm scattered about in a
matrix of well-formed albite crystals. The tourmaline
species is most likely schorl, but tourmaline species
cannot, in general, be determined by sight alone;
chemical analysis is usually needed. Also present are
a few orange-brown titanite crystals (some complete
and others not); these are about 1 mm in size. From an
obscure Montana locality, not included in Mindat's
Jefferson County, Montana list.
Accompanied by a Chris Tucker Minerals label; many of
his Montana material was self-collected.
