Spinel has a specific gravity of 3.6g/cm3, meaning that they are about 36% heavier than quartz. If you need something to add a little weight to your jewelry, this is it!
Spinel typically has a deep black color and a slightly metallic luster. And while more rare, it is also found in a variety of different colors ranging from translucent greys to pink.
Spinel is found in a number of different locations around the world, including Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Australia. It is one of the harder stones rating an 8 on the Mohs Hardness Scale, making it ideal for long lasting jewelry that won't scuff or scratch over time.
In metaphysical belief, black spinel is also associated with grounding and protection. As a result, the gemstone is often worn as a symbol of positive energy and protection.
