Abstract
Summary: Seven chemical analyses of pink or green tourmalines belonging to the elbalte-schorl series, along with their physical, optical, and X-ray data are presented. Linear variation diagrams showing the relationship between composition and refractive indices, specific gravities, and cell parameters are constructed. Relationship between colour and chemical composition is also discussed.Keywords
