A Russian man stumbled upon a wild cave during a mountain climb. After exploring inside, he was surprised to discover a huge rock shaped like a disc.
Upon closer inspection, the man noticed that the disc was very large, with a diameter of up to 4 meters. Its shape indeed resembled that of a UFO.

Seeing the strange sight, the man hurriedly left the cave and contacted the local authorities to report the find. A team of local police and several UFO researchers quickly arrived at the scene. Upon conducting a preliminary examination of the rock, the experts exclaimed: “This is not just a rock; it is made from a material we could not have anticipated. It is tungsten, a material sought after by many countries.”
Tungsten, also known as Wolfram, is a chemical element with the symbol W. Tungsten is a rare metal that is seldom found in its natural state on Earth; it usually exists within compounds with other elements.

Among metals, tungsten ranks highest in tensile strength, making it one of the hardest metals known to humanity. Furthermore, tungsten has the highest melting point of all metals. As a result, tungsten is often used to manufacture light bulb filaments, automotive parts, and applications in military, aerospace, and construction industries.
Due to its high density, tungsten is also widely used in missile manufacturing to penetrate defensive barriers. The European Union has classified tungsten as a “critical” material. The UK Geological Survey has placed tungsten at the top of the risk list for the supply of essential materials needed to sustain the economy and the livelihood of the country.
Because tungsten is so difficult to find naturally, and after assessment, experts discovered that this object is approximately 1 million years old. Additionally, they believe that the object’s unusual shape does not appear to be naturally formed. Therefore, experts suggest that the object may likely be of extraterrestrial origin.

In addition to this strange object, dozens of ancient disc-shaped stones have previously been found around this area. However, the earlier discs were less than 1 meter in diameter, with the largest measuring only up to 2 meters. Furthermore, despite having a similar shape, they differ in many ways from the unusual object discovered by the man.
