This listing is for one lot of 2 pound sworth of Tourm. Quartz RandomBlack Tourmaline Rutilated Quartz From PakistanLuster: VitreousHardness:7Quartz containing included needles of Black Tourmaline.Quartz is a hard, crystalline mineral composed of silica, similar to glass.The stone is formed when liquid Quartz and Tourmaline combine at high temperatures and pressure. The two minerals separate once more as temperatures and pressure drop. This process leaves Tourmaline needles trapped inside the Quartz crystal.Tourmalinated Quartz is clear rock crystal (crystal quartz) which has grown together with black tourmaline, and shows strands of the tourmaline running through the quartz, hence "tourmalinated." The earliest use of tourmalinated quartz was for tools made by hominds in Ethiopia over 2 million years ago.Quartz is the best-known piezoelectric gem--it can carry an electrical charge when exposed to an applied voltage, in response to pressure or in response to mechanical stressors. Quartz is also a pyroelectric gem--able to generate an electric charge through rapid states of temperature change. These are the scientific qualities behind reliable and accurate quartz movements in watches. The same properties mean it is ideal for use in microphones, speakers, filters and sonar.The stones are wet in these photos. This is what the stone will look like after its been tumbled and polished. Showing the stone in this state shows its true potential.I combine on shipping
