Originating from the Jurassic Age, a period spanning approximately 201 to 145 million years ago, petrified wood offers valuable insights into ancient ecosystems and environmental conditions during the time of the dinosaurs.
Chinchilla, situated in Queensland, Australia, is celebrated for its superior-quality petrified wood. The wood found in this region often boasts vibrant colours and exceptional preservation.
Petrified wood undergoes a remarkable transformation as organic material is gradually replaced by minerals over millions of years. This process typically begins when trees are swiftly buried under layers of sediment, halting decay by cutting off oxygen. Over time, mineral-rich groundwater seeps through the buried lot wood, replacing its organic components with minerals like silica, iron oxide, and manganese.
