Abstract/Notes | Borosilicate minerals of the tourmaline supergroup are valuable both for collectors and for geological research, as their chemical composition reflects the growth-medium conditions and their evolution. Tourmalines show a wide compositional variability, with pink tourmalines being particularly prized as gemstones. This study examines the crystal chemistry of pink tourmalines from Cruzeiro (Brazil), Nuristan (Afghanistan), and Malkhan (Russia) using Electron Microprobe Analysis, Micro Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS), and Single Crystal X-ray Diffraction. The results show that the pink tourmalines are Mn-rich elbaite, with the pink coloration linked to Mn at the Y site, indicating crystallization from Mn-rich pegmatitic fluids. LIBS spectra suggest a Li-rich pegmatite origin. The samples show differences: Cruzeiro exhibits strong chemical zoning, Nuristan has a uniform composition, and Malkhan shows slight zoning with high F content. A comparison with a pink tourmaline from Anjanabonoina (Madagascar) reveals that it is Ca-rich, belonging to the calcic group and crystallizing in an open system influenced by external Ca-rich fluids, contrasting with the closed system of the samples from Cruzeiro and Nuristan. The sample from Malkhan shows an anomalous chemical variation of Ca and requires further investigation. |
