Cut into a classic crystal point shape, this piece highlights the dense, carbon-rich structure that Shungite is known for.

Shungite is a rare Precambrian mineral composed primarily of carbon and is found almost exclusively in the Karelia region of Russia. Formed over two billion years ago, this ancient stone is prized for its unique composition and historical geological significance.

The clean lines of the hexagonal point combined with the dark charcoal tone make this piece ideal for display, collections, or as a statement mineral specimen.

Geological Information:

Shungite is a mineraloid composed predominantly of carbon, often containing fullerenes and other carbon structures not commonly found in other natural stones. It originates from the Karelia region of Russia and dates back to the Precambrian era, making it one of the oldest known mineral formations on Earth.

Unlike quartz-based crystal points, Shungite has a dense, non-translucent structure with a naturally matte surface when polished. Its formation is linked to ancient organic deposits subjected to extreme pressure and heat over geological time.

Primary source location: Karelia, Russia.
