Glassy, transparent green Tourmaline crystal with etched red Tourmaline at the base. The etched red portion resembles flames coming from a green 'rocket' of Tourmaline. A pocket found at the Pederniera Mine that contained similar specimens was named the 'Rocket Pocket' for the same reason. A small crystal with big character. Complete all around and undamaged.
