Paraiba Tourmaline is a new darling of the world's precious gems. Hite Dimas Barbosa is an ambitious Brazilian gem miner. After years of excavation, in the fall of 1989 in the Brazilian state of Parabe, suddenly a color that has never been seen before Lightning, it is a color that cannot be described in words. It is blue but not pure blue. It is a very bright turquoise blue, and there seems to be neon in the blue light. This gemstone material was immediately assessed as a high-grade tourmaline variety and a special gemstone grade. At the 1990 Tusang Jewelry Show in the United States, the first appearance of Paraíba's electro-optic blue tourmaline caused a sensation in the gem world. .

As the discovery of Paraiba Tourmaline spread around the world, a crazy or even devastating mining operation was staged. In the next five years, the hills of this famous Paraiba (400 meters long, 200 meters wide, 65 meters high) were quickly razed to the ground. After that, a mine named "Batalha Mine" near it in 1993 did not escape the fate of being mined. The treasures of this world seem to disappear on the earth overnight.

Finally, in the mid-1990s, exploration discovered new sources of information, the most notable of which was the Altodos Quintos mine, which belongs to the Paul Wild OHG Group and is therefore also known as the “Wild Mine”.

To achieve this, we are also very Careful, we do not blindly mine, conduct in-depth scientific research, and improve the advanced equipment before the system is excavated and mined. Therefore, the mining cost is extremely high and the conditions are harsh."
