Spinel comes in many shades from transparent (colourless) to shades of pink, red, blue, yellow, green, brown and black. It brings the mind stability and happiness and reduces the symptoms of depression and harmonises the structure of chakras by healing them along the spine thus named as spinel. Black spinel is highly reflective and does not feature the same metallic overtone that many other black stones do. It’s a gorgeous deep black in appearance. They are widely found in the areas of Vietnam, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Tanzania and Tajikistan.

Tourmaline Quartz combines the properties of Tourmaline and Clear Quartz Crystal.  The black inclusions are made up of schorl. These long, thick, dark ‘threads’ of Tourmaline inclusions  create an effective grounding that strengthens the body’s own energy field against external invasion. Most of this Tourmaline Quartz is found in Brazil.
