Pink Tourmaline with Pink Lepidolite 4mm Round 15-16 Inch New Rounds Named in honor of JohannPink Tourmaline ranges in color from light pink to deep magenta, with inclusions of white to colorless translucent or transparent. Tourmaline occurs in nearly every color in the rainbow and its name derives from turmali, the Sinhalese word for mixed color precious stone. Tourmaline is unusual in that it is both pyroelectric and piezoelectric, meaning it becomes magnetically charged from heat or friction.
