 Black Tourmaline can be found in Brazil, Colorado, the Appalachian Mountains, Germany, Cornwall, England, Sri Lanka and many other places in the world. Most Black Tourmaline sold in the USA comes from South America and specifically, from Brazil. Because of its electrical properties, it is used for frequency control in shortwave radio apparatus and pressure gauges.

From a lecture on stone medicine by Dr. Jeffrey Yuen, a renown Taoist priest and master of classical Chinese medicine: Black tourmaline is known to assist the body in getting rid of radiation and heavy metals. A powerful chelation stone, it’s said to draw toxins out of the bones, as well as pull out whatever damages the DNA, i.e., cancer, radiation, mercury poisoning, HIV, chronic fatigue–all manifestations of “pestilent qi”. Tourmaline directs energy away from the DNA and helps the body to contain cellular damage.

Black Tourmaline is known as a Guard Dog Stone that can protect you either physically, mentally, emotionally or spiritually. They ‘guard’ you energetically. It might be from physical danger, such as when a person is a firefighter, in the military during a war, or a police officer.  

This is a huge difference between black tourmaline and

other guard dog stones. It receives the negative or heavy

energy, reverses it/transmutes it through it’s piezo and

pyroelectric abilities, and then sends it back to the sender!

When there is danger or perceived danger, black

tourmaline will absorb it termed “androgynous” because it

will rebalance on either side of the body as well as any

field in your aura, as well as protect your chakras.
