#petrifiedwood — Public Fediverse posts

We have several good-size bits of petrified wood in our yard in southern Oregon. I did some research, and these specimens are likely between 20 and 35 million years old, dating back to the late Oligocene to the early Miocene period. During that period, volcanic activity literally covered some Oregon forests in ash, and that combined with mudflows and silica rich groundwater slowly replaced the log’s organic structure molecule-by-molecule - which preserved grain, growth rings and bark textures. Pretty 🆒 stuff. A study in ‘deep time’, they are…

December Jewelry of the Day! #jotd
Today’s theme is Day 1 - Favorite Christmas Movie. My favorite Christmas movie is The Muppet Christmas Carol. My favorite scene is the Marley & Marley ghosts of Christmas past haunt Scrooge. My necklaces are therefore representative of past, present, and future. The center stone is petrified wood, so it’s very old and represents the past. The Tiffany key represents future opportunities. The top necklace represents the present and is the same color as Kermit the frog. 🐸

Key by Tiffany & Co.

Peridot necklace was a gift so I’m not sure where it is from.

Partner and I decided to bring our big rubber boots to our favourite secret* creek and spent the evening exploring it a bit further.

Found a really cool chunk of petrified wood that has coal seams running through it!

* Not really secret just not a super popular spot, but it does have a somewhat delicate ecosystem going on so we're trying not to bring too much attention to it

Lots of pieces of petrified wood amongst the stony creek bed.

We woke up early on the sixth day of our vacation to catch a sunrise inside Bryce Canyon National Park, and then we drove to Moab.

Dash Dino and Chonk had many adventures today at Petrified Forest National Park in Arizona. Here they admire the fields of petrified wood.

At the Petrified Forest/Painted Desert in Northern AZ!

Hubby and I spent yesterday polishing specimens: some Hampton Butte petrified wood, Dry Creek petrified and agatized wood, a petrified burl, two pieces of Paulina pink #agate limbcasts, and a sweet little #quartz nodule with a tiny #druzy vug.

I picked up a nice handful of petrified wood today. Late Cretaceous, ~70mya.

Got a few new fluorescent mineral pieces for what I've dubbed the "party bowl". It's surprisingly difficult to get a good picture with the UV flashlight. (Also the flashlight tells me everywhere I need to dust. :( )

Le bois pétrifié est une vraie merveille de la Nature ! #PetrifiedForest National Park a une des plus grandes concentrations au monde de cette empreinte minérale de géants d'un autre temps. Le bois devenu pierre prend toutes les couleurs et peut devenir quartz pur. Le plus incroyable est de se dire qu'il était déjà pétrifié quand les T-Rex arpentaient cette Terre !

#Today is the first day in 3 weeks my #rocktumbler isn’t going. This batch needs some friends before moving into the last grit stage. Quite the 🌈 for an “odds & ends” round!

All #agates from near #BendOregon limb-cast fields, mix of #jasper #PetrifiedWood and pretty rocks from there and the #PacificOcean #OregonCoast

Went to the rock shop in Santa Cruz and got some more UV reactive rocks to use my new flashlight on. :) (Turns out one is poisonous so I need to get a container for it, oops.)

It's no secret what #DinosaurProvincialPark, #Alberta 🇨🇦 is famous for, but it's the #plants from this #WorldHeritageSite that tell the clearest story about this #Cretaceous #ecosystem. #PetrifiedWood like this, along with other aspects of the park's #geology and #paleontology, paint a picture of a low-lying coastal #wetland, perhaps similar to the #bayous of the modern Gulf Coast.
