The mahogany coloration comes from iron and magnesium inclusions that streak through the black obsidian glass in warm reddish-brown bands. It has a Mohs hardness of 5 to 5.5 and a conchoidal fracture, meaning it breaks with curved, shell-like surfaces. Notable deposits are found in Mexico, the United States, and Iceland. In crystal healing, it's associated with grounding, protection, personal empowerment, and the release of old emotional wounds and energy blockages.
