Shungite is a rare carbon mineral. It is a combination of carbon and silicate minerals found in an ancient deposit in Karelia, Russia. It is thought to be have been formed approximately 2 billion years ago.
It's unique structure stems from the presence of hollow molecular carbon cages known as fullerenes embedded within the rock. Fullerenes look like footballs - molecular hexagons and pentagons bound together in a hollow cage. Fullerenes or "Bucky Balls" were named after the noted architect, Buckminster Fuller because they follow the same architectural pattern as the geodesic domes he created.
