About Black Tourmaline

Black Tourmaline, known mineralogically as schorl, is the most common member of the tourmaline group, a complex boron silicate family of minerals. It forms deep black, often striated crystals and has a hardness of about 7 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale. Tourmaline is also known for its piezoelectric and pyroelectric properties, meaning it can develop an electric charge under pressure or when heated.

Cleansing & Recharging

Because Black Tourmaline is not water-sensitive, a quick rinse in plain lukewarm water followed by thorough drying is also acceptable for the stone itself.
