Shungite - Rough Stones

Here you receive 1 pound of natural, rough shungite pieces, all at least 3+" long. It is a dusty, opaque black stone,

with minute mineral inclusions, notably pyrite, appearing in places as specks or tiny veins. This grade is suitable for

carving and other lapidary purposes. 

Shungite is a stone that is relatively new to the western hemisphere. It has been famous in Russia, its exclusive place

of orgin, for hundreds of years. It is the only known natural source of buckyballs (fullerenes) native to Earth.
