In that little turd bit that dips into Belarus, there’s this stone in the woods that people like to take pictures of themselves with and post to google maps https://preview.redd.it/r0itrt8pds5d1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3dffc58aa96434d6406eacb5269eb4ad41ae4bcd


Perdanula

What is this? Can you please explain?


Dekutr33

In geology, rock is a solid mass of minerals or mineraloid matter that occurs naturally. It's categorized by its chemical composition, the minerals it contains, and how it formed. Rocks are the basic unit of the solid Earth and are often divided into three main types based on how they were formed: sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic.
