Physical Characteristics: Highly rich in carbon (up to 98%). Shungite is one of the few sources of natural "fullerenes" which is a rare hollow carbon molecule. Due to the carbon content it is currently being used in commercial water filters, especially in Russia.
Metaphysical Properties: Said to neutralize electromagnetic fields, many people place Shungite near their computers and/or monitors. It may also be useful in removing negative energy. Put this donut shape on a cord or chain and wear it with you!
