Paraíba tourmaline is a copper-bearing variety of elbaite tourmaline, famed for its intensely saturated neon to electric blue, greenish-blue and green colors. Originally discovered in the Brazilian state of Paraíba, similar copper-bearing material has since been found in Nigeria and Mozambique. With Mohs hardness 7–7.5 and good toughness, it is well suited for jewelry, though clean stones in strong colors are rare.
