Shungite FAQ

What does Shungite do?

You’ve probably heard of Shungite, and about Shungite, but you still might be wondering what it does. Shungite has unique properties that no other stone or natural material possesses. One of it’s main benefits is its ability to neutralize, another way of saying it is harmonize, electromagnetic frequencies and radiations. This means all of the harmful EMFs that are emitted by appliances and technologies are harmonized by Shungite. This means they’re usually harmful to health, but after coming in contact with Shungite, they no longer are stressful to the body.

So electromagnetic pollution from cell phones, wifi routers, computers, smart meters, power lines, cell towers, transformer boxes, bluetooth technology, TVs, microwave ovens, breaker boxes, 5G antennas, baby intercoms and more can be neutralized with Shungite.

Water purification is another main benefit of Shungite. Shungite purifies and disinfects water. It removes contaminants, pathogens and the by-products of chlorination – which are harmful free-radicals. Shungite also removes radionuclides from water. In addition, Shungite structures water. Structured water has been shown to be better at hydrating the body, as it is more readily absorbed.

The stone also provides strong grounding energy when worn on the body and when placed in the environment. It does this by getting your body and the earth to resonate together. This balances the energy of the body.

How to clean Shungite?

Shungite is made up of a large percentage of Carbon. Carbon is very soft and Shungite fresh from the mine will often have some black powder on it. This is just Shungite powder and is safe and non-toxic. It can be removed by wiping the stone down with a warm, damp cloth.

How to cleanse Shungite?

Shungite can be periodically cleansed just like you would any gemstone or crystal. It can be placed out in the sun or rinsed in water. Or even cleansed with smoke as in smudging.

Unlike most crystals and gemstones, Shungite does not hold on to old energies, this is due to its high crbon and fullerene content. So, while periodic cleansing of stones is always a good thing, with Shungite it is not as necessary to do. Shungite is self-clearing.

How to use Shungite?

Shungite is considered by many in the gemstone world to be a semi-precious stone. It is very beautiful and makes a great addition to a jewelry collection and to one’s home decor. But, its uses go far beyond its natural beauty. The stone’s ability to harmonize EMFs, purify water and ground the body make it a favorite tool for those seeking health and wellness.

To gain the many benefits of Shungite, it can be worn as jewelry. Or, it can be carried on the body in a pocket or a bag. The stone can be placed in homes, offices, and cars. The stone is carved into different shapes of different sizes to make it easy to bring it into your living space. This creates a better energy environment for people, pets and plants.

To use Shungite to purify and structure water, stones are placed in water and left there for several hours, overnight or even continuously – with you adding more water as you use it.

Can Shungite get wet?

Yes. Shungite can get wet. The stone can be placed directly in water for making Shungite Water. When wearing Shungite jewelry, it is fine to swim or even bath with it, but you do want to be aware of any other materials in the jewelry which you might not want to get wet.

Does Shungite block EMF?

While some people refer to its as blocking EMFs, we like to be more technically accurate. Shungite actually harmonizes EMFs. The stone does this by filtering the frequencies through its hollow carbon molecules and then rebroadcasting them out. These hollow carbon molecules are called fullerenes and they have many amazing abilities that are unique to them.

The newly filtered, rebroadcast frequencies are no longer stressful to the body, but rather beneficial. This can be tested using basic Muscle Testing.

Is Shungite magnetic?

Shungite is not magnetic. This makes it safe to use on and around technologies. Shungite will not affect the functioning of tech.

Is Shungite electrical?

Shungite is not electrical, in that it does not produce electricity. However, it is electroconductive. This means it is able to conduct electricity. Electrical current will flow through Shungite, which is a very rare attribute for a stone. In fact, Shungite is the only stone that is truly electroconductive. Hematite might have some properties, but not enough conductivity to complete a circuit to light a bulb. This property belongs to Shungite exclusively.

How to identify Shungite?

In order for Shungite to be real, genuine Shungite, it needs to be electroconductive. There are many stones on the market that look like Shungite, but are not. These are inferior stones that are usually mined from China and India. The only true Shungite mines are in Russia.

So, if a stone does not come from Russia, it is not true Shungite. Also, if a stone is unable to conduct electricity and complete a circuit to light a bulb, it is not real Shungite.

How to activate Shungite?

Fortunately, Shungite does not need to be activated! It is the inherent composition of the stone on a molecular level that gives it all its wondrous properties. Shungite is ready to be used as is upon arrival. No activation needed.

Is Shungite Water safe?

If made properly, yes. We only recommend using Elite Noble Shungite stones to make Shungite Water. Regular Shungite, the type that can be carved into shapes, is a highly therapeutic stone with many great uses. However, it contains a lower carbon count than Elite Noble Shungite.

When making Shungite Water, we like to use the purest form of Shungite. The form that contains the highest amount of beneficial carbon and fullerenes. This purity of stone guarantees the healthiest and most therapeutic Shungite Water.

Does Shungite absorb radiation?

Yes, Shungite does absorb radiation. Technically, it would be called adsorption. Absorb is based on volume, adsorb is based on surface area. Shungite, like therapeutic clays, has a lot of surface area molecularly, based on the shapes of its carbon molecules. These surface areas are able to attract chaotic frequencies, such as altered radiations and man-made radiations. They are also able to attract radioactive particles, toxins, heavy metals, bacteria and viruses.

Does Shungite have healing properties?

We prefer to say Shungite has the ability to increase wellness. Shungite has been shown to increase overall immunity, to improve recovery times after illness, to strengthen immunity and to speed-up the healing process after surgery.

Rooms of Shungite are used in Europe and Russia as sanatoriums. Patients recovering from illnesses and surgeries are placed in these Shungite Rooms as the effect of the Shungite is to strengthen the body and improve healing times.

By putting the body in a beneficial resonance, the body is able to work better and more efficiently.

The crux of the issue of EMF pollution is the body being placed in an energy environment that is hostile to it. The body is unable to function as efficiently, this leads to dysfunction which leads to acute symptoms. Eventually, if the energy environment is not improved, the acute symptoms can become chronic conditions.

Does Shungite protect from EMFs?

Yes, Shungite does protect from EMF pollution. Invisible, yet very real, EMF pollution is a new type of toxin. In fact, it is the fastest growing form of pollution in the 21st century. Never before has mankind been exposed daily to the amount of artificial electromagnetic fields that put the body in a weakened state.

The first electric light bulb was commercially patented by Thomas Edison in 1879. As electricity began to be put into urban homes, there was already evidence of changes in the health status of those living in homes that had electricity.

The advent of wireless communication has created a situation that is much more aggressive than wired EMFs from electricity. Wired EMFs offset the body’s functioning, as the body is electric. However, the wireless radiation used now has the ability to break DNA, which is what leads to cancers, tumors and birth defects.

Wireless radiation can also increase the temperature of the tissue. While the radiation that is currently allowed to be brought to market does not heat tissue so drastically as to cause necrosis or burns, the long term effects of the chronic slight heating are unknown.

Shungite placed directly on technologies, placed next to technologies or placed in rooms will provide a highly sophisticated form of EMF protection known as harmonization. This is the method you find in the natural world. The transmutation of frequencies into other resonances. The act of blocking EMFs is not seen in the natural world.

Blocked signals do not allow technology to work, and often will increase the wireless signal of that technology as it works to connect. This actually increases the radiation output of the device, the opposite effect of what you want to do when protecting from EMFs.

This is why we only promote harmonization of frequencies through transmutation, with Shungite being the ideal medium for this. Natural and ancient, the stone has played a valuable role in the health of the Russian people for centuries.

In modern times, patents using Shungite to decontaminate nuclear wastes and to remove radioactive particles from water have been granted.

Will we always be able to get Shungite?

Shungite, like any precious commodity, is limited. However, there is an abundance of regular Shungite stone available for mining. Reserves are not likely to run dry any time in the foreseeable future.

Will we always be able to get Elite Noble Shungite?

Elite Noble Shungite only makes up 1% of all Shungite reserves. It is very rare and needs to be mined by hand, which is why it is more costly than regular Shungite.
At this time, Elite Noble Shungite is still being mined, but it is much more limited in its availability than regular Shungite. So, if you are interested in using Elite Noble Shungite, we recommend getting yours while you still can!

What are the types of Shungite?

Shungite, like all stones, has different grades or types. There are three basic types of Shungite. The most common type of Shungite is called Black Shungite, or Type III Shungite. It is also sometimes referred to as Regular Shungite. Anytime Shungite is carved into a shape, it is this type of Shungite.

However, there are gradations within Type III Shungite. Some Type III Shungite will contain only 20% Carbon. This is a lower gradation of Type III Shungite and is not as powerful or therapeutic. Type III Shungite we source contains a minimum of 30% Carbon and up to 50% Carbon. This grade of Type III stone is highly effective for EMF clearing, grounding and increasing wellness.

Type II Shungite is known as Petrovsky Shungite. It is between Regular Shungite and Elite Shungite. It contains between 50% and 70% Carbon. It is very rare and becoming harder to procure. It requires hand mining but is not as fragile as Elite Noble Shungite, so it can be carved, but it is prone to breakage when carved so it has to be handled carefully.

Type I Shungite, which is the Elite Noble Shungite, contains between 98% and 99% Carbon. It is also called Silver Shungite, as it often has a silvery sheen to it. Elite Noble Shungite is very fragile and can only be used in its raw state. It can not be carved.
