Tourmaline

Tourmaline is found in almost every color and is known by different names depending on the chemical structure. Tourmaline is in the silicate mineral group as a boron silicate in which boron is compounded with elements such as aluminum iron, magnesium, sodium, lithium, or potassium in a common crystal structure yielding crystals with similar physical characteristics but very different chemical compositions. 

Tourmaline is a 7-7.5 on the mohs scale and is one of the birthstones for October. Tourmaline is a durable gemstone and suitable for rinds as well as bracelets and pendants. 

Tourmaline becomes electrically charged when heated and when squeezed. It’s piezoelectric as well.
