Moeraki rock has a diameter of up to 3m, formed from ancient marine sediments about 60 million years ago. Experts say that the unusually rounded appearance of the rock is the result of erosion over time as a sedimentary rock formed by precipitation of natural minerals in the space between sediment particles.
