After yesterday's Twenty Hints on one of the threads, I was reminded of that old favourite Twenty Questions.
Rules reminders:-
Someone thinks of something/someone and posts a very minimal clue - just the category (person, film title, object or whatever)
Others post questions, to which the answer can only be "Yes" or "No" or guesses of who/what they are thinking of.
Questions are limited to twenty.
If someone guesses correctly within the twenty, they choose the next subject, or nominate someone else to do so.
If not, the answer is given and another subject chosen, either by whoever posted the unguessed one or by someone else who has been nominated.

I'll start it off - A person.

Would anyone else like to have a go? I can't guarantee to be around long enough for the next hour or so.

OK, but you know my SOH.

Object, mainly mineral, probably a little vegetable, but would be pointless without some animal. Some people think this is a joke.

That's all the clues for a while

All you have established so far is that

It's bigger than you can carry

No nothing to do with milk. This clue will help when you get closer.

You need to establish some very basic facts. There is one important thing you have not any idea of yet.

Mainly mineral -- almost entirely.
Without an animal element it would be pointless
Outdoors

No that's daft, You can carry a steak knife. A cattle grid?

Oh Elegran, you disappoint me, I thought you would be their salvation.

No not a cattle grid.

Clue, there are several of these, but each one is unique.
