But often, the ones that aren't as interesting visually have a lot more to them than meets the eye. This month's SciShow Rocks Box star is a mineral called Shungite that may not look like much, but it tells us about our planet's ancient past. And, researchers could use this same ancient mineral to revolutionize our future.
