in the Sông Chảy Massif (Hà Giang Province)

 Nguyễn Văn B́nh, Phan Tiến Dũng, Trần Văn Soát

Tourmaline is rather widespread in the Sông Chảy granitogneiss massif. The Sông Chảy tourmaline occurs in the following formations: beryl- and tourmaline-bearing mica pegmatite, tourmaline-bearing mica pegmatite, feldspar pegmatite, tourmaline-bearing mica rocks, quartz-tourmaline veins. Main mineral association: tourmaline, quartz, feldspar, muscovite, biotite, phlogopite. The results of roentgen diffraction analysis show that the Sông Chảy tourmaline is mainly dravite (belonging to the dravite-schorl isomorphic series).
