Unfortunately, I can’t find much more reliable information on the area. It’s apparently also known as Wan Tkufi and Karakeb.
I’d love to know the geological reason for this if anyone knows it.

There’s a post on that other website about six months ago where someone a PhD candidate gives an explanation. The formation is a bit complex, but when the harder rock forms in a funny shape, and the softer material around it is preferential weathered away, the sphere or disc shaped mineral is all that remains.
That makes a lot more sense than the ‘living stones’ stuff they were claiming. I didn’t buy that at all.
