Shungite

An Introduction to Shungite

Shungite is believed to be over 2 billion years old, making it one of the oldest substances on Earth. This black, lustrous mineral, contains a form of carbon known as fullerenes. Fullerenes were discovered in 1985 by American scientists Robert Curl, Richard Smalley, and British scientist Harold Kroto. They were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1996 for this discovery.

Fullerenes are unique carbon molecules with a spherical or cage-like structure. These molecules give Shugite its electricity-conducting properties and ability to purify and protect energetically. It acts as a guardian against electromagnetic frequencies (EMFs) emitted by electronic devices that surround us daily. Laptops, cell phones, computers, and tablets all emit EMFs, which can have subtle but significant effects on our well-being.

There are two main varieties of shungite sold for healing purposes: Elite Shungite, also known as Type I Shungite, is more rare and contains a higher percentage of carbon content, giving it a distinctive silvery-black, metallic luster.. Regular shungite, on the other hand, typically contains around 30-50% carbon. It is commonly gray or black in color and lacks the same sheen as Elite Shungite.

By placing Shungite near electronic devices or wearing it as jewelry, you can create a protective shield that filters out some of the harmful electromagnetic radiation. This proactive approach doesn't interfere with the functionality of your devices, but rather works to neutralize their free radical output. This is particularly useful for those who spend extended periods working in front of computers or using phones.
