Black Tourmaline: The Ultimate Protection Crystal

If you are looking for a crystal to create a protective shield around your energy, home, or workspace, Black Tourmaline is your go-to stone. Jet black and powerfully grounding, it is one of the most widely used crystals for energetic protection.

What is Black Tourmaline?

Black Tourmaline (Schorl) is a boron silicate mineral found in granite and pegmatite formations. It is strongly piezoelectric — it generates an electrical charge under pressure — which may explain its energetic potency. It is sourced primarily from Brazil, Pakistan, and Africa.
