Paraiba tourmaline belongs to the mineral class silicates. The trace element copper and manganese were detected here as color-forming elements. It is named after the state of Paraíba in Brazil, where it was found in the 1980s.

Paraiba tourmaline is a variety of elbaite, which in turn belongs to the tourmaline group. Decisive for the differentiation from other tourmalines is the chemical composition of the mineral.

The Paraiba tourmaline in its beautiful neon blue color has hardly been found in this form for years. The original main mine has closed, only individual farmers are still searching for material.

It is therefore often necessary to fall back on old bearings. It is one of the really rare colored gemstones, whose prices have risen sharply recently.
