Bi-color (pink and green) double-terminated Tourmaline crystal from the famous Himalaya Mine in San Diego County, California.  This is a really neat crystal with a flat termination on one end and a pyramidal termination on the other.  It's nice and gemmy and shows cat's-eye chatoyancy on one side. Weighs 6.94 grams and valued at $150-$200. Better color in person than was captured by photos.
