Origin & Geology – The Erongo Mountains, Namibia’s Most Mineral-Rich Range 

The Erongo Mountains in central Namibia are among the world’s most significant mineral deposits. For decades, the pegmatites there have yielded world-class specimens of a wide variety of minerals—including aquamarine, fluorite, and, time and again, spectacular schorl tourmaline crystals. Collectors from all over the world purchase minerals from the Erongo Mountains, as the unique geological conditions of the Erongo Pluton favor the growth of unusually large and well-formed crystals.
