Geological Context:
Shungite is a unique black, lustrous non-crystalline mineraloid, consisting of more than 98% carbon by weight. It was first described from deposits near the village of Shunga in Karelia, Russia, which gave the mineral its name. Some studies suggest Shungite contains fullerenes (spherical carbon molecules), adding to its geological and scientific interest.

Deposits of Shungite in Karelia are believed to be over 2 billion years old, formed from ancient organic-rich sediments subjected to geological processes over immense timescales. This makes Shungite not only scientifically significant but also a fascinating window into early Earth conditions.
