That's a pretty specimen. I know Tourmaline can grow in tabular formations...You might have Tourmaline in a matrix of Calcite and/or Mica. Just a guess...

Very nice finds, halitedigger! I agree with washingtonrocks. The last one looks like tourmaline with maybe lepidolite. ? One of the tourmaline xtals in the last pic looks as if it may be bi-colored.
