8.6" Colorful, Hubbard Basin Petrified Wood Section (Rip-Cut) - Nevada

This is a 8.6" wide, richly colored rip-cut section of Hubbard Basin petrified wood which has been highly polished to a glossy finish on one side. The opposite side of the wood has been left in its rough state. It displays beautiful hues of browns, pinks, and whites. Comes with a display stand.

Found only in Elko County, Nevada, Hubbard Basin petrified wood is becoming increasingly popular with collectors. This variety of petrified wood is characterized by its tan or white-blue coloring that is often enhanced by red, orange, or brown patterns. Most Hubbard Basin petrified wood is Miocene-aged fossilized spruce wood. One of the main reasons collectors enjoy this petrified wood is because the growth rings are often nicely preserved and show through the vibrant patterns.
