Physical Information
Shungite is a rare carbon-rich mineral, primarily found in the Karelia region of Russia.
It contains unique carbon structures called fullerenes (C60) — a feature not seen in many natural minerals.
Shungite ranges from matte black to metallic, depending on carbon content; the highest-grade form, Elite Shungite, has a bright silver sheen and contains up to 98% carbon.
It is ancient, estimated to be over two billion years old, formed from long-transformed organic material.
Shungite has a lightweight but sturdy feel and is commonly shaped into spheres, pyramids, jewelry, and harmonizers.
Due to its unique chemical composition, Shungite has gained attention in both scientific and metaphysical fields.
Metaphysical Properties
Shungite is associated with purification, energetic protection, and grounding.
It is believed to neutralize negative energy, stabilize the aura, and support emotional detoxification.
Many use Shungite for shielding against unwanted energies, including environmental stress and electromagnetic disturbances.
Its grounding nature helps create balance, calmness, and a sense of stability during stressful periods.
Shungite is also considered a stone of deep transformation — helping release old patterns and clear energetic blocks.
