Hi there,

 

Shungite is not a crystal. It is composed of about 70% crystalline silicates

held in a matrix of 30% carbon. The biggest deposit is near the village of

Shunga in Karelia, Russia, but there are other smaller deposits, one in

Tajikistan.

 

It is similar to coal in that it forms veins in other rocks - some of the

veins in Karelia being 120m thick.

 

Unlike coal, which is formed from organic material such as ancient forests

that have been subjected to massive temperatures and pressures beneath the

ground, Shungite is thought to have originated from algae or bacteria.

 

Below are two links that you may find useful. If links don't work, copy and
