Geology and nature

Vitenskapen har ikke ennå klart å finne en god vitenskapelig forklaring på hvorfor noen steiner synger. Ulike teorier har blitt presentert, men ingen av dem har gitt en god nok forklaring på fenomenet. Den mest vanlige teorien er at syngjarsteinene består av et spesielt mineral eller en spesifikk samling mineraler. Denne teorien faller gjennom ettersom disse steinene består av svært mange og ulike, bergarter.
