In its natural, un-faceted state, it is characteristically long and thin, roughly triangular in midsection, and usually striated. It has pyro-electric properties (meaning when warmed it attracts and holds dust, ashes, small pieces of paper). Another unusual property of Tourmaline is, when viewed from the side, it appears more opaque, but when viewed through mid-section, appears clearer. This is called dichroism.
Tourmaline was used on high-pressure gauges in submarines as the boron in its chemical structure has incredible strength.
Important locales include Brazil, China/Nepal and California. Hardness: 7.0-7.5 on the Moh's Hardness Scale.
