Probably Tourmaline. A nice one.

 

[CAROLNLADUE]

HERE ARE A COUPLE MORE ALONG THE SAME TYPE-

 

[Eu_citzen]

Second pic is probably tourmaline. First one is difficult to tell.

 

[CAROLNLADUE]

I am about 80% sure that the first one is siberian jade.What I am not sure about is if it comes from a core somthing?

 

[Exnihilo]

Waaa ! Beryls ! The first one is very nice ! It's a wonderful bixbite !

 

[CAROLNLADUE]

bixbite!!!!oh my!!you are the second person to tell me this pink guy might be worth a lot of money.I am wondering to whom i should take it that i can trust?I live in Sacramento .any ideas?adding a couple better pics-

 

[Eu_citzen]

Bixbite looks completely different, it belongs to the hexagonal crystal system. This crystal is obviously trigonal.
It looks quite big and big bixbite finds are very very very rare. So don't get overly excited.

I don't know what type of stone it is...however I like it. PM an asking price...think big...you never know.

My first thought, OMG, what beautiful tourmaline!
Bixbite, I would't think so either, see above ref.

Got any one can check it for you?
Inquiring minds, would like to know!

Has all the appearance of Tourmaline. Only way to know for sure is to have it checked by a geologist,gemologist or a trusted jeweler. rockhound

 

[Goodyguy]

Appears to be a fine specimen of rose tourmaline.
and yes Jade on the cylinder.
I think black/dk green tourmaline on the other one.

Very nice,

GG~

Third one could be a jade or an aventurine cylinder from a core drill. The others are tourmalines.
