Gold Sheen Obsidian has an iridescent or metallic "sheen" caused by light reflecting from minute inclusions of mineral crystals, rock debris, or gas.
 
Obsidian is an igneous rock, a mix of cryptocrystalline grains of silica minerals in a glass-like suspension. It is a natural occurrence of volcanic glass created when lava from a volcano cools rapidly with minimal crystal growth. 
 
Since Obsidian is a natural glass it may have razor-sharp edges that can easily cut skin and flesh if broken. Handle with care. Do not grind dry since long-term exposure to finely ground powder may lead to silicosis.
