Its interesting that op links the two. I wouldnt think there was any link except here is something.
The wiki about the black stone.
The colour appeared to me black and metallic
I also really like the conspiracy theory that the stone of destiny is a fake, the real one being stolen or hidden away, but the wiki there caught my eye as well.
A letter to the editor of the Morning Chronicle, dated 2 January 1819, states:
On the 19th of November, as the servants belonging to the West Mains of Dunsinane-house, were employed in carrying away stones from the excavation made among the ruins that point out the site of Macbeth's castle here, part of the ground they stood on suddenly gave way, and sank down about six feet, discovering a regularly built vault, about six feet long and four wide. None of the men being injured, curiosity induced them to clear out the subterranean recess, when they discovered among the ruins a large stone, weighing about 500 lb [230 kg], which is pronounced to be of the meteoric or semi-metallic kind.
Interesting the original descriptions for both include meteoric or metallic qualities.
