Breaking news, I'm going on a short holiday to whitby for my birthday at the end of May. You should all come. I'm gonna look for "Whitby jet" which inspired the term "jet black". It's a fossilised wood, 184 million years old, that can shine into a "black mirror".

Was Whitby Jet used in Scrying Mirrors?

Is it possible that Whitby Jet was used for scrying mirrors in the art of divination? Or is this just a modern myth?
