No. One would not find black pearls in the Dead Sea.

Black pearls primarily come from two types of mollusks; Pinctada margaritifera and Pteria sterna. Their common names are black-lip oyster and rainbow-lip oyster.

The pearls produced by the black-lip are the famous Tahitian pearls or black South Sea pearls. They are found or farmed all throughout French Polynesia, Polynesia (including Hawaii), throughout the Cook Islands, the Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Fiji, Indonesia, the Philippines, the Gulf of Tonkin around South China and Vietnam and as far north as the southern islands of Japan (Okinawa and Ryukyu, not Kyushu.
