Black Obsidian
Black Obsidian is a naturally occurring volcanic glass formed from rapidly cooled lava. It is primarily composed of silica, with a glassy texture that results from its unique formation process. This mineral is predominantly found in regions with volcanic activity, such as Mexico, the United States, and Japan. The formation of Black Obsidian occurs when lava cools so quickly that crystals do not have time to form, resulting in a smooth, glass-like surface.
One of the most notable characteristics of Black Obsidian is its deep black color, which can sometimes exhibit a slight sheen or iridescence. This appearance is due to the presence of microscopic gas bubbles trapped within the glass during its formation. The hardness of Black Obsidian is approximately 5 to 5.5 on the Mohs scale, making it relatively durable for various applications, including jewelry and decorative items.
