Well there is Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen which makes up the plastic outside of a pencil sharpener. To know what element can be found inside you would have to know what a pencil sharpener is made up of on the inside.
A sharpened pencil lead is non-metallic. It is typically made of graphite, which is a non-metallic element.
Graphite is often mistaken for the end of a pencil because pencils are made with graphite, which is a form of carbon. Many people mistakenly think the core of a pencil is lead, but it is actually graphite.
Yes, gold is a natural element found on Earth.

So that you'll be able to sharpen pencils of course!
The "lead" found in pencils is actually graphite, or to answer the question, the "blackelement found in a pencil is carbon (C).
Carbon is used in pencil sharpeners in the form of graphite, which is a carbon allotrope. Graphite is a soft material that easily shears off as pencils are sharpened, allowing for a new, sharp point to be exposed. The rubbing of the pencil against the inner blades of the sharpener grinds away the graphite, creating the fine pencil shavings that are collected in the shavings compartment.
Pencil sharpeners typically use a combination of a blade and a gear mechanism to sharpen the pencil. As the pencil is inserted into the sharpener, the blade shaves off the wood and graphite, while the gear mechanism rotates the pencil to achieve an even sharpening. The force for turning the gear mechanism can come from either manual hand-cranks or electric motors depending on the type of sharpener.
