Fun Fact: Petrified Wood is not a crystal, but actually a fossil! It's believed to be around 200 million years old. Through stages of crystallization, quartz replaced most of the wood. Sometimes you will see other colors in petrified wood such as: red, purple, black, and green. This is due to trace minerals in the quartz such as: iron, manganese, carbon, and chromium.
