Product Description
Petrified Wood Unpolished Stone Slab
This beautiful red and yellow Petrified Wood unpolished stone slab is 4.2 inches by 2.7 inches and 4.5 mm thick.
It weighs .14 lbs. and is shown wet in the first 2 pictures.
This gemstone is the fossilized wood of trees. The Petrified Wood formed when a tree died and was 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.
I'm not sure where this beautiful Petrified Wood is from, I'm guessing Utah-possible Henry Mountain, but if an expert knows I welcome information!
Metaphysical Properties: Petrified Wood is a stone of patience and slow and steady growth.
