Black Tourmaline is an igneous rock that mostly forms in granite pegmatites. 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. This structure and its other properties generate a strong piezoelectric effect, with electrically charged poles at the crystal’s poles. It is also pyroelectric, generating an electric charge through temperature changes. As a result, Black Tourmaline is a highly protective stone, able to block, repel and transmute negative energies.
