Yes. And no, that isn't a "wise guy" answer. Boron occurs in nature in several ways, two of which can be contrasted easily. Amorphous boron is a brown powder, and it's soft. Crystalline boron is black and hard (9.3 on Mohs' scale). A reader can use the link provided to our friends at Wikipedia to confirm these facts and mine more.
