Fossils: Bog-Wood
SWAMP BOGKnown as Gary Green,
Larsonite, and McDermitt Green Jasper. Occurred in a Miocene age
formation fossilized imprint of fossilization can be seen in many of
the polished slices.
Green color: the color is from a combination of iron (44,600 PPM),
Alluminum (11,000 PPM), Potassium (5,030PPM), Sodium (1,550 PPM), and
Calcium (1,020 PPM). Some descriptions on the internet claim that the
green color is from Chromium or Copper. This is not correct since
only 106PPM Chromium and 23PPM Copper.
Description of Swamp Bog:
Wood, algae, other swamp vegetation and mud were covered by volcanic
ash between and 11 and 14 million years ago. Water carrying minerals
seeped in creating the green color while it petrified.
