    Black spinel is the opaque jet-black variety of spinel. Black spinel is the premier black gemstone. With a hardness of 8, it's extremely durable. Black spinel lacks the metallic lustre of hematite or black diamond, other popular black gemstones. Black spinel is a true gemstone, unlike jet, which is form of coal (coal). Black spinel would make an attractive center stone when surrounded by diamonds or white sapphires. Black spinel is often confused with black tourmaline, another great material for use in making jewelry with black gemstones.
