“Stone lights up a tester” – Reactions as man shares ‘rare’ stones he found in Jos [Video]

Many have dropped their two cents over the exact identity of rare stones a man found in the North-Central state of Jos.

Sharing a clip of the stones on X, @NigeriaStories wrote: “This was found in JOS, Nigeria. “Experts do you know what this is?” 

In the vidro, the man, whose name is yet to be known, laid out the black stones on a clothing material and used what he described as a local tester to demonstrate their capabilities.

To further confirm his effort, he used an industrial tester to check the stones. It is not clear what the stones actually are.

However, some netizens thought it may be the fictional vibranium.

These intermetallic elements include selenium, gallium, gadolinium & silicon (used in solar panels).”
