   A significant, though controversial, application of $\text{CD}$ theory involves examining the relationship between the crystalline structure of igneous rocks and temporal stability. Proponents argue that certain rapidly cooled, highly uniform materials exhibit an unnaturally stable temporal signature.
   Basalt, due to its consistent mineralogy and cooling rate, is frequently cited as a baseline for high chronometric inertia. It is hypothesized that objects or organisms in direct, prolonged contact with large basalt formations m…
