These are A-grade Black Tourmaline in Quartz raw stones from Minas Gerais, Brazil, sold by the piece or by the pound. Black schorl needles grew locked inside milky-to-clear quartz, a fully natural intergrowth that is rarely faked. Each piece runs 1-2 inches at Mohs 7-7.5. A favorite grounding stone for crystal grids.
Black Tourmaline in Quartz is a natural intergrowth of two minerals: Black Tourmaline (Schorl), a trigonal silicate with a Mohs hardness of 7 to 7.5, and Quartz (SiO2), with a hardness of 7.
The two formed together when tourmaline-rich solutions crystallized inside quartz veins during pegmatite formation. Sometimes called Tourmalinated Quartz, this combination is prized for showing both minerals clearly preserved in a single piece.
Brazilian material is the global benchmark for quality.
Black Tourmaline in Quartz is traditionally associated with grounded protection, energetic clarity, and amplified intention. The Tourmaline component is long held for grounding and shielding work, while the Quartz is traditionally seen as a master amplifier.
Many people work with this stone as a balanced protection piece that holds its ground without feeling heavy.
These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.
Offered as a starting point for your own practice.
Black Tourmaline in Quartz sits at 7-7.5 on the Mohs scale, harder than a steel blade, so it handles daily carry and a quick rinse without fuss. Keep chemical cleaners away from it; they can etch the surface.
For quiet protection.

Natural black tourmaline in quartz from Minas Gerais, Brazil. Each piece is hand finished with natural jojoba oil, which deepens the color and texture already in the stone. Any treatment beyond that finish is disclosed on this page.
You'll receive pieces from the same batch photographed, weighed to the amount you choose. Every piece passes our quality control and meets or exceeds what you see in the photos. Single specimens are listed separately and say so.
Each piece measures 1 to 2 inches on its longest side and weighs 20 to 50 grams. About 12 to 20 pieces per pound at this size, and each option shows its piece count.
Grade A. Visible tourmaline blades in quartz, with the natural fractures and uneven edges you get in a raw stone. Grades reflect visual quality within a batch. A is standard, with typical inclusions. AA shows stronger color, cleaner surfaces and tighter sizing. AAA is the top 10 to 15 percent of a batch. Every lot is inspected and graded by our team in Rockville, Maryland, not taken on the supplier’s word.
Minas Gerais, Brazil, a long-established source for both schorl and quartz. It came to us through a community partnership, one of the sourcing models we publish and stand behind.
Every lot is inspected and graded by our expert team before it is listed, not taken on the supplier's word. A on this listing means stronger color, cleaner surfaces and tighter sizing than the batch average. Pieces that miss the mark never reach the shop.
How We GradeSourced through a regional cooperative or community-based workshop. Processing and economic benefit stay local, which means more of the value reaches the people doing the work. We say what we know and where our tracing stops.
Our Sourcing StandardsEverything we sell is natural in origin: never synthetic, never dyed, never coated. Where a stone has been heated, irradiated or stabilized, which is common in the trade for some species, we say so on the listing. If a piece is not as described, return it within 90 days of delivery.
