This is a very rare palm tree petrified wood, Palmoxylon, found in the Anderson Mine in Arizona.
The Anderson Mine, located in near Morristown, in Date Creek Basin, Yavapai County, Arizona, is situated within the renowned Red Picacho Mining District. The primary target of mining at the Anderson Mine has been feldspar, and the mine is known for its low production output
Petrified Wood formed when a tree died and is quickly buried by sediments. Minerals in the groundwater then permeated the wood, replacing the original organic matter and turning it to stone. The main mineral is silica, but trace elements in the silica create a variety of colors.
