Mined from: Brazil

Description: Black tourmaline, scientifically known as schorl, is a crystalline mineral belonging to the tourmaline group. It typically forms in long, prismatic crystals with a striated structure and is most commonly opaque and black in color.

These chunks of Brazilian schorl specimens have a striking rich black color mottled with red iron oxide staining. 

One of the most well-known properties of black tourmaline is its ability to act as a protective shield against negative energy. It is said to create a barrier that deflects and absorbs negativity, including electromagnetic radiation from electronic devices. Beyond physical protection, black tourmaline is thought to provide psychic protection. It can help shield against psychic attacks, negative thoughts, and emotional influences from others. Black tourmaline is associated with grounding energy. It helps to balance and align the root chakra, promoting a sense of stability, security, and connection to the Earth.
