Paleo Osmunda Petrified Wood Stone Sphere Lovely and very rare Paleo Osmunda Petrified Wood from Central Queensland, Australia. It is a fern, species: Qsmunda Williansoni . This is lovely sphere is 2 inches or 50 mm in diameter. This one has several natural pits and fracture lines. This gemstone is the fossilized wood of trees. The petrified wood formed when a tree died and was buried by sediments. Minerals in the groundwater then permeated the wood, replacing the original organic matter and turning it to stone. The main mineral is silica, but trace elements in the silica create a variety of colors. Petrified wood is very hard and takes an excellent polish, making it a great stone for jewelry.
