Petrified Forest Wood

Petrified Forest National Park

Some of the most colorful wood in the world, this equatorial Pangaean wood contains agates, jaspers, quartz crystals and other precipitates.

The shape and visual texture of the original wood is perfectly preserved.
In some specimens it is possible to count tree rings.
