This specimen from Pakistan features beautiful rainbow Black Tourmaline. The mineral name for this popular metaphysical stone is Schorl. Black Tourmaline is always a solid black and unlike other tourmaline minerals it is never translucent or transparent. It has a distinctive appearance with glossy long striated crystals.
Black Tourmaline is a highly protective stone, able to block, repel and transmute negative energies. You can use Black Tourmaline to remove negative energies within a physical space or emanating from another person. Black Tourmaline cleanses, purifies and transmutes dense negative energies into positive vibrations. These healing properties originate in its crystal structure. Black Tourmaline has a strong piezoelectric effect, with electrically charged poles at the crystal’s poles. It is also pyroelectric, generating an electric charge through temperature changes.
