An ancient story about why black tourmaline is called " sherl"....
And it lies, this story, in a remote provincial Saxon village in Germany.
In modern times the village is now known as Carlow. (he. Zschorlau) — commune in Germany, in Saxony.
Before our era (31), there was a tin mine in this village, where casseterite was mined and subsequently very rich deposits of black tourmaline were found, in honor of the "iron" tourmaline of sherl, black ( Schörl), the village was named...hence the name of black tourmaline, which is still widespread to this day, "Schörl" (Schörl).
