stones that grow?

TROVANTS ARE STONES THAT REALLY GROW BY THEMSELVES. COOL. Near a village, just south of central Romania a number of stone formations with alien features lie dormant, witnesses to the passing of time; that is - until it rains. Not long after the last drops of water fall, they begin a multiplication process. Small oval or round blain-like forms appear on the upper part of them. Many people are amazed and even locals are impressed when after heavy rainfall these rock formations begin to `live.' Locals have aptly dubbed them, "growing stones."

Trovants have a hard stone core but their shells are made of sand, as most examples have been found in sandy regions. Geologists argue that the rocks are the result of a cementation process that occurred millions of years ago in this region and it is somehow accepted that their creation has its roots in the early diagenesis. Scientifically these stones are sandstone concretions and the weird forms are achieved by an irregular secretion of cement.

Even rocks would sparkle split and crumble into smaller chunks, then grow their estatic fragments back into cliffs defying time and geology and all because they felt her sueded feet step upon them. Pg. 9 Disobedience of the Daughter of the Sun
