      Green Tourmaline, also known as Verdelite, is a color variety of the mineral Tourmaline, colored by the presence of iron, titanium or vanadium in the crystal structure. Tourmalines are a large group of borosilicate minerals. Many tourmalines are elbaites, which are multi-colored minerals rich in sodium, aluminum, lithium and occasionally copper.
