@3kidzgems: Watermelon tourmaline is a rare gemstone that features a pink center surrounded by a green outer ring, looking just like a slice of watermelon. What Makes It Special • Color zones : Manganese and lithium create the pink core, while iron or vanadium forms the green outer layer. • Hardness : It scores 7 to 7.5 on the Mohs hardness scale, making it durable for daily wear. • Origins : Miners first found it in Maine, USA, in 1902. Today, top sources include The Crystal Council profiles in Brazil, Nigeria, Madagascar, and Afghanistan. #tourmaline #watermelontourmalineslice
