What happens to the Resurrection Stone in Harry Potter?

By Matthew Harrington
After using Godric Gryffindor's Sword to destroy the Horcrux within the ring, Dumbledore sealed the Stone within the very first Golden Snitch Harry Potter had ever caught and made arrangements to have Harry inherit the Stone in his will.

.

Similarly one may ask, how does Harry Potter come back to life without the Resurrection Stone?

Harry came back because Voldemort had used Harry's blood to regenerate. The protection that Lily's sacrifice provided to Harry got redoubled and now ran in both Harry's and Voldemort's veins. Thus, when Voldemort cast the killing curse on Harry, it didn't work properly. It only destroyed the horcrux inside Harry.

Also Know, did Harry Potter use the Resurrection Stone on himself? Dumbledore left Harry the Resurrection Stone (disguised in a Snitch) in his will, and Harry uses it just before he goes to battle Voldemort. However, he doesn't use it to try to bring the dead back for an extended period or anything.

Secondly, what happened to the resurrection stone after Harry dropped it?

The Resurrection Stone slipped from between his numb fingers, and out of the corner of his eyes he saw his parents, Sirius (Black), and (Remus) Lupin vanish as he stepped forward into the firelight… Actually, it was none of the above. Harry dropped the Resurrection Stone because he couldn't let Lord Voldemort get it.

Why does Harry need the Resurrection Stone?

So the short answer is, Dumbledore gave Harry the stone so that he could see those most important to him for a few moments to steele himself with the courage he would need to sacrifice himself for everyone else's sake.
