Elite Shungite
Elite Shungite Raw
Elite Shungite, also known as Noble Shungite, is a the result of a meteor that fell to Earth around 2 billion years ago and is mostly found in the Karelian territory of North East Russia, the biggest concentrations being along the edges of Lake Onega. These pieces are about 10 gm each.
There are two types of Shungite, based on the stones' carbon content: Elite Shungite, and Shungite.The main difference between the Shungite types is their organic carbon content. Elite or Noble Shungite is the highest quality Shungite. It contains over 90% of carbon. It is a rare black stone with a silvery shiny appearance, and it's very fragile. Due to its high carbon content, this type of Shungite has the most powerful benefits in water purification, and EMF protection.
It’s unique structure contains molecules of carbon called fullerenes. It is the only known crystal to contain these “Buckyballs” that make up the high carbon content of Shungite. There are two variations of Shungite, one is called Shungite or Black Shungite, the other is known as Elite, or Noble Shungite.
Black Shungite contains 30-50% carbon content and is more accessible than Elite Shungite. Any items carved into shapes are made of black shungite because it is the stronger of two stones.
Elite shungite contains a 90-98% carbon content. It is manually mined by hand because of its delicate structure, making this much rarer and exclusive. Because of it’s delicate structure, it is mainly available in rough or raw pieces. However, Namaste Studio also has this on occasion in jewelry.
Pairing Shungite with water activates some almost magical properties. Shungite has the ability to clean water from almost all of organic compounds (including pesticides), metals, bacteria and harmful microorganisms. First rinse Shungite chunks off until water runs clear. Place Shungite crystals on the bottom of a water container (the size of the container and of the crystals are important). Use 150-200 grams of Black Shungite or 50-70 grams of Elite Shungite per litre of water.
After 24 hours the water will be biologically active. It ‘s ready for external and internal use. Keep your water fresh. You can drink up to 4 glasses per day, Shungite water has many benefits. Clean your Shungite crystals in the sunlight every month and replace them every 6 months.
