First Esmerelda Mine Tourmaline

November 11, 2011

We’ve all seen it: a crisp $1 bill framed on a shopkeeper’s wall—the first dollar to come through the door.

We recently framed the first tourmaline specimen found at the Esmeralda Mine, following the purchase of the property by Pala International.
