Bone is piezoelectric -- not sure if this is due to structure or because apatite is also piezoelectric.
Some practical notes:
I haven't been able to use it in crystal oscillators at 5V and a naive setup (a standard hex inverter crystal oscillator circuit). Probably I'll need to use proper thin sections of it (to increase the electric field per mm), increase the voltage (e.g. 20V), and maybe stress it in the right direction (bone has a 'grain' to it).
Also : Fee fi fo fum. I'll grind some bones to make my... breadboards?
