sry, not sry. this hokum was passed around a long time ago. the "experts" who dated it supposedly dated the ROCK at 140 million YO.
anyone with any sense would carbon date the wood, and when it was done, it turned out to be less than a little more than 100 YO. the "stone" is formed as the iron corrodes and the iron oxide reacts with the earth to create an accretion ball around the iron that resembles a rock. NOT 140 MILLION YO. lost civil war era tool.
