Philosopher's Stone
legendary alchemical substance / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Philosopher's Stone is a substance that alchemists believed was able to turn base (impure) metals (such as lead) into pure gold. They thought it could also be used for rejuvenation (to become younger again) and to achieve immortality (to live forever).
