Petrified Wood - Bog Wood

SWAMP BOG

Known 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.
