Rough black tourmaline specimens retain their natural, unpolished form, showcasing the raw texture and striations typical of this powerful mineral. These pieces are ideal for collectors, energy workers, or anyone seeking a grounding, protective stone.
This black tourmaline may display natural variations in texture and color, occasionally revealing reddish streaks where iron is present. Tourmaline is the most multicolored mineral group known, forming in virtually every shade across the spectrum due to its complex chemical structure. It is also piezoelectric, meaning it can generate an electric charge under mechanical pressure—similar to quartz. Some varieties of tourmaline exhibit optical effects like chatoyancy (cat’s eye) when polished.
As a healing stone, black tourmaline is highly regarded for its protective qualities. It is said to shield against negative energy, radiation, and environmental stress. Often used for grounding, it helps balance the root chakra and supports emotional stability.
