Granite Rapper (Rock-Register)
Natural object
The granite rock on the banks of the Dnipro in Kremenchuk is a geological monument of nature and an ancient geodetic mark.
Until the middle of the 20th century, it was used as a rapper - a sign fixing a point on the earth's surface, the height of which in relation to the original leveled surface was determined by leveling.
The rock is an outcrop of gray biotite-plagioclase magmatites 2.5-3 billion years old. It is also called a granite register.
On the rock, which rises 5-6 meters above the river level, there are marks of the highest water levels during floods on the Dnipro since the 18th century. These floods occurred in 1789, 1820, 1845, 1877, 1888, 1889, 1895, 1945.
Since 1970, the granite rapper has been a natural monument of local importance.
