Shocking the internet once and for all, the video was disclosed in a post by twitter which currently has an incredible 36 million views. The profile "Africa Archives” published the video that shows inhabitants of the Democratic Republic of Congo holding small stones that managed to light up small LED lamps. By the way, the brightness emitted by the lamps charged by the stones is very powerful, even more impressive due to their size.
Soon after, in a another video, one of the stones found was rubbed against another material. From the friction generated, a kind of energy was released, in addition to strong sparks indicating the presence of heat. With that, curiosity became even greater, causing attention to turn completely to the video.
After all, is the video real?
Well, so far there are no traces that the video is fake. However, it is necessary to remain alert, as the search for likes through false content is intense on social networks.
Although there is no certainty about the composition of the material, there are strong indications that it is composed of columbite and tantalite. These minerals are sources of niobium and tantalum, the items most used to manufacture electronics. In addition, discussions about the possibility of a new source of clean energy were raised and if true, stones are a great alternative.

Very famous in comic books and in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Vibranium is a fictional metal responsible for providing energy. Due to this, netizens related the energized stones with Vibranium. Incidentally, Vibranium is found in the fictional country known as Wakanda, located in Africa, as well as the Democratic Republic of Congo.
