Hi Ants. I asked my son about your find, he is a geologist and this is his response about your new and pretty stone: "He is in Estonia and it is a heavy, solitary rock, which appears to be an erratic block transported by a glacier. Those holes are typical of vesicles in volcanic rocks or dissolution in carbonates. If it is a carbonate rock, he can use low concentration hydrochloric acid to see if the CaCO3 reacts and creates bubbles, unless it contains a lot of magnesium. A meteorite of that size would leave an easily distinguishable crater, and he also mentioned that it is not magnetic. But if he has doubts, he can contact a museum or university to perform X-ray fluorescence. Metallic meteorites have a characteristic chemical composition. To me, it looks like a partially dissolved carbonate."

Now that I can see it better, it's definitely not basalt, which is much darker. I'm skeptical about it being a meteorite as usually one that large (the rocky ones are more fragile) would be mostly iron - nickel and would be very heavy and, if that old and wet, would be rusty as hell. If it is a space rock, it will be worth a lot!

It's probably just some volcanic basalt that was transported there during the last ice age on/in a glacier. That could at least explain the roundish shape, as the rocks get sanded down moving in the ice over time. Another fun theory is that it's just some waste from an old foundry. Like a big block of slag/dirt that got dropped/disposed there when there was some smelting industry nearby. But that would probably be easy enough to track down if there was any such industry nearby in the last century.

The whole of Nordic region has been very stable and without volcanoes for billions of years. The region has traveled as a one single clump around the globe but overall, no volcanic activity. Oldest bedrock in Europe is located in Finland and is some 3.5 billion years old. Not much movement with those ages. Because of it's stable and unbroken bedrock, Finland is able to dig and build nuclear repository. The only exception is Iceland which is too far away for giant rock to be transported by the giant glacier of the last ice age. Hundreds of kilometers, perhaps but not thousands. Also, if you check wiki on "Glaciar erratic", you can see the rocks are smooth. Eroded by the ice, movement and melting ice mixed with sand and gravel. All in all, volcanic/transported by glacier just doesn't fit.

Ha I found what seemed to be a piece of meteorite in a field in Wales, it was ferrous (a magnet stuck to it) and all melted and rounded on one side; I took it to the Natural a History Museum in London where they declared it to be furnace slag. But I never figured out what it was it doing in that field.
@mr-x7689
@mr-x7689 18 сағат бұрын
You would clearly see if it was slag. 1 due it containing lots of glass from the smelting. 2 no foundry in old times would make neither blooms nor slag blocks that big. Everything had to be moved so nothing would ever be made larger than what would easly be able to be moved either by hand or on cart. I used to live next to the foundry in Kohlswa Sweden. They used to make Anvils and other things there, dont know if they still do. + i visited lots of older smelteries in swede as a kid. sure those slag blocks could get big, but nothing an adult man couldent move if he set his mind to it. And the slag from those foundries all came in 2 forms. Either rectangular blocks of various sizes, or as slagg heaps, where the workers just scooped out the slagg and just tossed it on to a heap like gravel.... gravel made out of glass and super sharp metal grainules.

As a geophysicist/geologist this looks like a weathered silicate accretion dropped off by a glacier. Ruling out a meteorite since it was not found in a crater. Lots of these kind of stones typical of glacial deposits. Use a sledge to knock off a big chunk and have a rock artist saw it in half and polish it. You might have a large source for polished rock art if it slices well.

I have two of the same kind of "stones" in my garden (in Northern of Estonia). Found them from field, hauled them home and washed with pressure washer and now they are decorative stones in my garden. Both are about 1 ton and both have a very smooth and flat side, what is probably a mark of that, during the movement of the glacier, these rocks where moved here from somewhere else. By knocking on them I can tell that these are very dense and heavy compared to their size. Definitely not some ordinary granite rock.

I adore and am re-inspired by his unyeilding dedication to this rock. Gosh, when I finish cleaning out my late Mom's house, I wish I could recruit him for my meteor explosion project. (We had an explosion 70 miles from my city. I wanted to be able to collect and study the material - which I think is not what people were imagining or looking for. This material is not a moneymaker, but the answers it could provide could help save lives if an incoming meteor's trajectory were predicted. Not all meteors are planet killers, but even the one at Chelyabinsk caused a lot of permanent injuries & property damage. I don't have a PhD, but I did have coursework in forensic science & crime scene investigation. It's been frustrating not to have guidance or even any enthusiasm for the project from local institutions (too busy). Two surgeries for cancer hasn't made it easier. What I love in this video, is that no matter what was impeding the effort, he worked around it. He would not be defeated. I am so tired. I need this infusion of that mindset. Thank you🙏

Must agree, as to its deposition : Glacial erratic. As to composition, acid test will tell you if it is limestone, barring that, it is likely a deposit from ancient hydrothermal activity, with what appears to be a bit of host rock attached. The holes are possibly oxidized minerals weathering out. May be quite pretty, when cut and polished.

I found an interesting rock when I was eight years old in 1969 too big for me to move. It’s probably still sitting there. I think about it every year. I should probably try to go get it.

I'm a rock man. That looks like a piece of karst limestone, any chance you could put up a couple of minutes of close ups, need to see the grain structure. It is definitely not a granite and it doesn't look much like a meteorite given the size and surface texture, that would be rare. Given where you live I'm sure that there were glaciers passed over and occasionally dropped a non-local rock in the dirt, they're called erratics. Let us know if you want proper id and I'll respond. Love the channel.

I have read most of the comments and this is more plausible that volcanic or extraterrestrial. I thing karts limestone can be checked with a few drops of acid to do the fizz test. Otherwise, some type of sedimentary composite. All glacially transported stuff. My vote.

I was thinking a breccia or conglomerate rock, which is clastic, metamorphic stone. It seems like there are inclusions of a tan color rock, though there aren't many good shots, he'd want to cut a piece off to get a good look at the matrix. I definitely don't think it's igneous or "granite", there are gneiss and gabbro that have inclusions, but they wouldn't erode those pockets, usually, unless they were under a river, and sand and water eroded them. Conglomerates are fairly common It's formed when pebbles, river rocks, boulders are silted in with mud, silt, clay sand, and "baked" under high pressure or near a volcanic intrusion, and then lifted up to be exposed in our lifetime, where you found it. If the pebbles that were trapped were calcium stones, like marble, agate, etc, they would erode from the normal acidity of rain and plant growth. Usually the matrix is some type of sandstone, slate, quartzite. Cut some piece from that or another smaller boulder with a cut-off saw or grinder with a diamond blade, you can wet it and get a better look at the composition. Some conglomerate stones have wild mixes of different rocks: marble, onyx, granite, gabbro, dolomite, serpentine. Some are used in the decorative stone "marble and granite" business for floors, countertops, etc

Definitely visicular, pyroclastic. Simple chem tests would reveal it's composition. Trivia: Estonia was once underwater a few eons back.

Looks like limestone, easily checked by breaking anew fresh surface and put a few drop of acid ( vinegar or battery acid) and if it fizzes it is limestone. Some of the limestone has water forced through it and dissolves passages in it.

As a geologist the rock has the appearance of a meteorite, but without a closer examination I wouldn’t stake my reputation on it.

I am not a rockologist, which is what earth people are called by geologists, but my guess is that this rock is an earthling that contains calcium which is dissolved by water. The growth of moss speeds up the dissolving of the calcium because it is a nutrient to plants and moss itself stores water which again, keeps the rock moist and helps dissolving the calcium.

I've seen some comments mentioning limestone. That'd explain the odd corrosion in the rock. If it was a meteorite of that frickin size then you'd have a HUGE crater where it's at. Unless It blew/came apart coming down and these ones are shards. Insane size for a potential space rock nontheless.
