Dendrites (Large) - Utah
A fabulous formation from Utah that may at first glance look like fossilized ferns or a beautiful moss formation, but this isn't a fossil at all, it's actually made of minerals! A fun geologic phenomenon known as a pseudofossil, this is actually a type of mineralization called Dendrites.
Dendrites form from manganese and iron oxide mineralization along fractures and bedding planes within rock. Exceptional detail, paired with the striking contrast of the cream-colored Quartzite rock matrix and dark branching mineralization will make this "fossil" a great addition to your collection.
This specimen is self-standing with a flat cut base for perfect display. A protective clear-coat has been applied to the stone to bring out greater detail of the dendrites.
