7.7" Dendritic Limestone Section - Utah

Dendritic Limestone Section - Utah #114432

This is a split section of dendritic limestone from Utah. It features beautiful black branching manganese oxide formations that contrast well against the white-beige limestone.

It comes with an acrylic display stand.

Dendrites that occur within rock are most often a result of intruding (percolating) mineral solutions that contained manganese and/or iron. These solutions can work their way through microscopic cracks in the rock, leaving behind unique branching patterns. To an untrained eye, these can be mistaken for plant fossils within the rock.
