Product Description
$58.00
Search for tourmaline in our California tourmaline ore. This tourmaline gravel paydirt comes from the mine in Pala, CA. Each bag contains a random scoop of paydirt that may contain lots of fine dirt, mica, ore chunks(rock) and hopefully gemstones. Tourmaline from this area may be pink, green, blue, black or bi-color in needle or pencil shapes as well as bits and pieces. You’ll want to look over every piece of quartz for embedded tourmaline pieces. Keep a close eye for pinks and purples. The purples are usually a type of mica called lepidolite – nice for collecting but not worth much. Also be on the look out for quartz, apatite, morganite, clevelandite, calcite, feldspar, topaz, spessartine garnet, aquamarine, and kunzite. This is a rich area and produces many different gemstones.
Keep in mind, it’s mining and always a gamble.

The gravel consists of a lot of fine dirt, sand and ore chunks (rocks). We randomly scoop up each bag so we have no way to know what each bag may contain. Please understand mining is a gamble. You may find nice facet grade material or nice mineral specimens, but you may not find anything cool at all. Due to the abundance of gems found in this area, we hope you’ll find something that makes your time worthwhile.
