I-Tourmaline ligama eliqhelekileyo leeminerali zeqela le-tourmaline.Imichiza yayo ayintsonkothanga.Isakhiwo se-silicate samaminerali esibonakaliswe yi-boron equkethe i-aluminium, i-sodium, isinyithi, i-magnesium kunye ne-lithium.[1] Ubunzima be-tourmaline ngokuqhelekileyo bu-7-7.5, kwaye ubuninzi bayo buhluke kancinci ngeentlobo ezahlukeneyo.Jonga le theyibhile ingezantsi ngeenkcukacha.I-Tourmaline ikwabizwa ngokuba yi-tourmaline, i-tourmaline, njl.

I-Tourmaline ineempawu ezikhethekileyo ezifana ne-piezoelectricity, i-pyroelectricity, i-radiation ekude ye-infrared kunye nokukhululwa kwe-ion embi.Inokuthi idibaniswe nezinye izinto ngeendlela eziphathekayo okanye zekhemikhali ukuvelisa izinto ezahlukeneyo zokusebenza, ezisetyenziselwa ukukhuselwa kwendalo, i-electronics, iyeza, imboni yeekhemikhali, imboni yokukhanya, izinto zokwakha kunye nezinye iinkalo.
