When individual rocks are struck with a hammer, these angular stones ring with a bell-like sound.
I love learning new things about God’s amazing creation. I just marvel at how much fun He must have had creating all these different things for us humans to discover.
In this video, you can hear the ringing sound they make and the difference from rocks around them that don’t ring.
Depending on the size and shape of the rocks, they produce different tones. But not all the rocks ring, only about thirty percent of them. When a ringing rock is removed from the others, it no longer rings, or rather has a sound out of the human hearing range. Depending on the time of year, the pitch of the rocks can also change due to air temperature and factors like snow on the ground.
The exact cause for these boulders to be musical is unknown, but it has something to do with the layout, density, and spaces between the stones. Interestingly, the rocks ring at a B-flat; the same note a black hole far out in the universe has been humming for eons.
Pennsylvania also has fields of these amazing rocks. In this video, a trio of musicians compose and play a song on the stones.
The U.S. isn’t the only place to find ringing rocks. These amazing stones can be found in Scotland, England, Australia, Mexico, Namibia, and India. Who knows how many other places that are yet to be discovered. Some of the blue stones in England’s Stonehenge also have these ringing qualities.
I hope to someday be able to visit one of these sites of ringing rocks. I’m not musical at all, but it would be fun to make them ring.
