Featured Studies

Carbonaceous Fullerene-like Nanostructures in Shungite Rocks (2012) — An investigation into the unique carbon structures present in raw Shungite deposits.
Efficacy of Shungite in Heavy Metal Adsorption from Aqueous Solutions (2018) — Evaluation of Shungite's ability to filter heavy metals from contaminated water sources.
Electromagnetic Shielding Properties of Shungite-Based Composites (2020) — A study on the effectiveness of Shungite composites in attenuating electromagnetic fields.
Shielding Effect of Mineral Schungite During Electromagnetic Irradiation of Rats (2003) — An early study demonstrating that Shungite plates reduced hematopoietic damage in rats exposed to high-frequency electromagnetic radiation.
Fullerenes in the Precambrian Shungite Carbon from Karelia (2003) — Detailed investigation confirming the presence and structural characterization of fullerene-like carbon molecules within natural Karelian Shungite.
Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Shungite Against UVB-Induced Skin Damage in Hairless Mice (2017) — A landmark in vivo mouse study demonstrating that topical Shungite application significantly reduced UVB-induced oxidative damage, inflammation, and visible skin aging markers.
Shungite Carbon Nanoparticles Inhibit SARS-CoV-2 Infection of Vero E6 Cells In Vitro (2021) — Shungite carbon nanoparticles demonstrated significant dose-dependent inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 replication in Vero E6 cell culture, with a favorable selectivity index and proposed spike protein binding as the mechanism of action.
Mobile Phone EMF Stress Fully Reversed by Protective Devices: Two Controlled Experiments (2022) — Two controlled experiments found that a 15-minute mobile phone call significantly reduced heart rate variability and raised salivary cortisol, but wearing protective devices (pendant, insoles, mobile chip) fully reversed both stress markers — pushing HRV above and cortisol below resting baseline, with effects confirmed as biologically specific rather than placebo-driven.
