Anomalous rock lays stone "eggs" in China

A small remote village in Southeast China was at the center of media attention due to the anomalous cliff, which is here.

Local residents claim that about every 30 years out of this rock fall original stone "eggs". The mass of one "egg" can reach 300 pounds. They slowly, over 3 decades, to grow out of the rocks, appearing eventually on the ground. The villagers gather up these artifacts and keeping them as great values, as talismans, bringing good luck. Despite the fact that this phenomenon, known here a long time, the world journalists paid attention to it only recently.

While scientists can't say with absolute precision what is the secret of so-called "rocks, lay eggs," or Chan-Dan-I. The extraordinary mountain is located in the village of Gulu-Zhi Guizhou province. Kam-sui people of the shuis live in this village for more than a Millennium, and observing the miracle rock here go back centuries. The "eggs" that grow on the steep part of the slope having a height of 6 meters and a width of 20 meters. This place is truly unique, because in other parts of the mountain such phenomena were never observed. The Chinese are convinced that it is a divine phenomenon.

The villagers also believe that if rounded stones bring them a lot of luck. In particular, couples that have a mascot, should be born exclusively by the boys, which is considered in China a great boon. The villagers already gathered in their homes for about hundreds of such artifacts. The diameter of each "egg" is from 30 to 60 centimeters. Shuis stand in a queue behind the rocks and wait for many years until the "Mature eggs" will not fall from the cliff. It is reported that artifacts can be yellow, black, dark blue, brown, Burgundy or gray color. What it depends on, no one is able to determine.

Geologists have tried to find a rational explanation for what is happening. According to one hypothesis, the "eggs" are chunks of calcium carbonate, formed 500 million years ago during the Cambrian period. It is believed that this region was the sea, which eventually turned into high mountains. Blocks were frozen in a softer clay rock and is now under the influence of certain underground factors gradually come to the surface. The oval shape of the stones, they say, is because the sphere has the smallest surface area, and the molecules of calcium carbonate are easier to gather in these forms.

Nominated and more supernatural theory. For example, the fact that these artifacts were left on the planet by some aliens. Residents of Gulu-Zhi agreed that the "egg" will not leave the village, but some rocks were still sold and stolen from here. Alternative researchers who gain access to them, analyzed artifacts, and concluded that, in addition to calcium carbonate in the rocks there are traces of other substances that may have extraterrestrial origin. Another hypothesis States that "eggs" were made by the representatives of some ancient civilization probably relatively developed.
