It has a glossy black surface, often with shades of brown or rainbow-like iridescence. This stone has been used as both an ornamental and healing tool for centuries. As a healing stone, Black Obsidian can be used for protection from negative energies and influences in our lives. HOW IS BLACK OBSIDIAN FORMED? Black obsidian is an igneous rock and a type of natural glass. It forms when molten lava cools rapidly, resulting in the congealing of minerals within it into a solidified mass. Its mineral group consists mainly of silicon dioxide, which gives this stone its trademark black color. This volcanic glass can range from being quite soft to very hard. Its hardness typically ranges between 5 and 7 on the Mohs scale, making it slightly softer than window glass but much harder than most other minerals found in nature. IS BLACK OBSIDIAN A GOOD LUCK ST
