Shungite is an ancient stone found almost exclusively in northwest Russia. It has been found in deposits dated to be between 1.9 to 2 Billion years old from the Paleoproterozoic era, a time in earths history when early life was just beginning. This unique stone had formed from organic sediments that were deposited in lagoon like shallow water environments.
