The Singing Stone, a block of blue azurite and green malachite, at the American Museum of Natural History.
Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: The "Singing Stone" is a block of blue azurite and green malachite, on display at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. The block weighs about 3,300 kg and contains about 1,500 kg of copper. It was originally collected in 1891 in Brisbee, Arizona, and first exhibited at the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago. The name derives from the sounds emanating from the stone during changes in humidity. |
