This crystal of Tourmaline exhibits hemimorphism  in the direction of the vertical axis. Its forms are the prisms, (g), which as a result of hemimorphism, appear as a trigonal prism, and (a); the scalenohedron, (s), and the two rhombohedrons, (R) and (r), at the antilogue pole, while only (R) occurs at the analogue pole.
