A mysterious metal monolith discovered last week in the desert in the US state of Utah has disappeared, officials say.
Utah’s Bureau of Land Management said it had seen credible reports the object had been removed “by an unknown party”.
Social media images apparently from the site show a pile of rocks and a small piece of metal left behind.

Update: It’s Some Sort of Art Project

Countersunk screws are easily visible on the object.
Someone’s art installation?
Via: Desert News:
The Utah Department of Public Safety helicopter was helping Utah Division of Wildlife Resource with a task in the remote Utah wilderness when those on board noticed a mysterious object in the middle of nowhere.
The crews found a shiny metal monolith planted in the middle of a red rock cove.

It’d make more sense that it’s some kind of information receiver/transmitter. Maybe a measuring device of some kind or it’s collecting data for a research project perhaps? Interesting nonetheless.
