Classification: Cyclosilicate Mineral
Chemical Composition: NaMg3Al6(BO3)3Si6O18(OH)4
Hardness: 7–7.5 on the Mohs scale
Source: Found in various locations worldwide, including Australia, Brazil, Sri Lanka, and the USA.

Emotional healing and self-acceptance
Protection and cleansing
Physical and spiritual rejuvenation
Associations:
Element: Earth
Zodiac Signs: Often associated with Aries and Scorpio
Chakra: Root Chakra, often connected to the Heart Chakra for emotional healing
Historical and Cultural Use:
Dravite, named after the Drava River area in Slovenia where it was first described, is a lesser-known member of the tourmaline family. Unlike its more vibrant counterparts, dravite's earthy tones have given it a unique place in both gemological and metaphysical practices. It has been used for grounding and protection, as well as for fostering a deep connection to the earth and one's physical body.
Geological Properties:
Dravite is characterized by its brown to black coloration, which can range from light, translucent brown to almost opaque black. Its crystal structure is identical to that of other tourmalines, featuring elongated, striated crystals that can form in prismatic and acicular habits. The color of dravite is due to the presence of magnesium and iron in its chemical structure.
Spiritual and Emotional Significance:
Dravite is believed to be a powerful grounding stone, helping individuals to connect with the earth and their physical environment. It is thought to promote emotional healing by encouraging self-acceptance and understanding, helping to release negative emotions such as guilt, sadness, and emotional fatigue. Dravite is also used for spiritual protection, helping to cleanse and convert negative energies into positive ones.
Collectibility and Use:
While not as commonly sought after for jewelry as other tourmalines, dravite's unique beauty and grounding qualities make it a favorite among collectors and those interested in its metaphysical properties. It is often used in its raw form for healing work or cut and polished for jewelry that emphasizes its natural, earthy tones.
Care and Maintenance:
Dravite, like other tourmalines, should be cleaned with mild soap and water. Ultrasonic cleaners are generally safe for tourmaline unless the stone has fractures or liquid inclusions. Avoid exposing dravite to sudden temperature changes, which could cause cracking. Store it separately from harder gemstones to prevent scratches.
