They assume different forms because of the winds and the flow of waters

manganese oxides and of others mineral deposited on the fossil mud over
180 million of years ago.
Mandarins use these stones to appraise the ability of concentration of
the own pupils, rich peoples give them as gift on various recurrences.
Some grey stones are played to obtain serenity and others are possessed
as "protection."
