Shungite is a carbon-based crystal with 98% carbon, discovered in Russia in "Shun'ga Village." Shungite forms through the metamorphism of what's called precambrian coal, which is baasically just petrified plant matter. Known for its exceptional grounding properties, Shungite is associated with all chakras and provides strength, clarity, and protection. This absorbent stone is excellent for clearing, cleansing, and eliminating toxins from your environment.
