It really depends on how big of a piece you are talking about. A clay sized pieces of a mountains (weathered from feldspar) make up the sediments that cover the ocean floor. Dust sized pieces are often found on the ocean floor. They are produced by volcanic eruptions as in dust and ash clouds that can circle the Earth. If you are considering a car sized piece, then there are some possibilities. One is that it is rafted by an iceberg (formerly a part of glacier). And, in some rare cases, uprooted trees can carry large rocks out to sea. The rocks come loose of the roots and simply drop.
