"Five tectonic complexes and the Monte Capanne intrusion come together on the 229 square kilometer island that is Elba. This compact complex geology is the setting for vast iron deposits and historic pegmatites.

Rubellite - Tourmaline Rouge(1st Edition)
by Sarah L. Hanson, William B. Simmons, Gloria A. Staebler, Alexander U. Falster, Dudley Blauwet, Ryan Bowling, Jaroslav Hyrsl, Peter Lyckberg, Milan Novak, Federico Pezzotta, George R. Rossman, Karen L. Webber, David W. Bunk, Karen W. Webber
Paperback, 144 Pages, Published 2019 by Lithographie, Ltd.
ISBN-13: 978-0-9836323-9-9, ISBN: 0-9836323-9-1

"Taking its name from the Latin rubellus, meaning reddish, rubellite was rare in the ancient world. Its unique properties set it apart from other hard, red gemstones, generically known then as ruby or carbuncle. That distinction was lost during the Dark Ages but revived in the Enlightenment, as science undertook its quest to understand the nature of things. For two and a half centuries, rubellite has had a part of that great unraveling."

"While the ancients referred to many purple stones as Amethyst, today the term is more exclusively applied to quartz in the violet spectrum. The gemstone has long been assigned spiritual and mystical properties including protection from inebriation. However, this like-named volume offers no protection from the intoxicating power of Amethyst - a collectible that is still very much collectable."
