About Stone (st)

A British imperial unit of mass equal to 14 pounds (about 6.35 kilograms). The stone is still the everyday unit for personal body weight in the United Kingdom and Ireland — where people say "I weigh 12 stone" rather than 168 pounds or 76 kilograms. Officially abolished from UK commerce in 1985, the stone nonetheless remains cultural shorthand on British bathroom scales, medical charts, and casual conversation about weight. Equine and livestock weights in Britain are also still sometimes quoted in stones.

About Metric Ton (t)

A metric unit of mass equal to 1,000 kilograms (or roughly 2,205 pounds). The metric ton — also called "tonne" in international English — is the global commodity unit for bulk shipping, industrial manufacturing, agricultural yield (wheat, soybeans, steel), and CO₂ emissions reporting. It should not be confused with the US short ton (2,000 lb ≈ 907 kg) or UK long ton (2,240 lb ≈ 1,016 kg), which still appear in US and some British contexts respectively.
