means something like 'stone with mixed colors', referring to the color
spectrum of this gemstone. There are tourmalines from red to green and from
blue to yellow. They often have two or more colors. Some tourmalines also
change their color with the light changes from daylight to artificial light.

of the rainbow'. |
