5" Permineralized Wood Covered In Sparkling Quartz -, Germany

Discover the allure of this stunning 5.5" permineralized wood specimen sourced from Zwenkau, Germany. Its intricate preservation renders it reminiscent of freshly cut wood, with the added sparkle of druzy quartz encrusting its surface. Originating from an Upper Eocene coal mine deposit, approximately 35 million years old, this piece captures a moment frozen in time. While partially petrified, some sections retain the softness of "mummified wood", presenting a unique blend of ancient and organic beauty. As the mine stands flooded, these specimens stand as rare treasures from a bygone era.   Each fossil from Fossil Oasis comes with a guarantee of authenticity, accompanied by an information card featuring a QR code linking to relevant studies.
