Small Yellow Cat Petrified Wood * Super Red Stunner

$30.00Price

Beautiful Yellow Cat Petrified wood polished piece. This wood is has the reddest bright deep red color I have seen from the yellow cat wood. It's definately a stunning piece and the color makes up for the lack of fortification. The pattern is also very unique, sometimes mother nature makes you ponder how this was formed.

From the orginal yellow cat flat area.  The Moab area has the Tusher canyon petrified wood but it's more of an orangish/red color and doesn't have the extreme fortification.  Amazing to look at mother nature's creation, it's hard to believe it's really petrified wood.

 

Measurements are about: 1 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch and 3/4 inch tall, weighs .6 oz.

 

 

Yellow Cat Petrified Wood comes from Grand County, Utah found in the Brushy Basin Member in the Morrison Formation. This petrified wood is about 140 million years old from the Jurassic Time Period. Yellow Cat Petrified Wood is extremely rare and highly prized by wood and rare specimen collectors alike.  The limb casts from this area can be solid banded agate all the way through, banded agate with calcite or quartz centers but the majority are partial replacements with the banded agate mixed with permineralized wood to complete the casts. The agate colors range from red, orange, black and yellow.
