Also called folded rock, it was collected near a fault that formed 100 million years ago. It is a rock that has been deformed by the intense heat and pressure of the plates, and shows a unique wave pattern. 100 million years ago was the heyday of the dinosaurs, and this is a valuable stone that shows what the Japanese archipelago was like at that time. The pod-shaped folded rock in Numashima, Hyogo Prefecture, where the faults are connected, is designated as an important cultural property of Hyogo Prefecture. It is a type of metamorphosed crystalline schist, and iron, magnesium, aluminum, carbon, etc. are complexly contained in chlorite, forming black layers, on which white silicon is layered. It may also contain sparkling stilbromylene, making it a very valuable stone.
