rockbergs

Rockbergs is a fictional geological formation described in certain works of speculative fiction. These formations are characterized by their immense size and unusual composition, often appearing as colossal, naturally occurring structures of rock that defy typical geological processes. Descriptions of rockbergs vary, but they generally emphasize their sheer scale, sometimes suggesting they are remnants of ancient, colossal entities or celestial bodies that have fallen to a planet's surface.

The term "rockberg" implies a connection to icebergs, suggesting that the visible portion of these formations is only a fraction of their true mass, with the majority hidden beneath the surface. This hidden aspect often adds to their mystery and perceived danger, as they can dramatically alter the landscape and pose significant navigational hazards. In some narratives, rockbergs are also depicted as having unique mineral properties or even harboring unique ecosystems within their massive structures. Their origins are typically left ambiguous, contributing to their enigmatic nature within the fictional worlds they inhabit.
