Size : 16 x 18 x 5 mm Weight : 10 Cts Blue Opal Wood Indonesian Blue Petrified Wood is from ancient teak (hardwood) trees that turned to stone. The Blue Petrified Wood is from trees approximately 20 million years old. Minerals present in the mud and water prior to and during the petrification process leached into the wood giving it color. Petrified Wood comes from the Greek root petro, which means rock or stone, with literal meaning ‘wood turned into stone’. It’s the name given to the fossilized remains of terrestrial vegetation. Petrified Wood with Blue Opal was first found as pebbles and larger rounded stones in streams and near the slopes of three volcanoes in region of Indonesia’s Garut, West Java Province, nearly 300km away from Soekarno-Hatta airport. The source deposit was finally located on the steep slopes of Mt. Tjikolak almost 30 years ago, and going popular into public around 2017. What the miners actually found was an ancient petrified forest, which had been pushed over by the deluge of pyroclastic flow from a volcanic explosion. Then, over the ages, the wood was fossilized and preserved by opaline silica. In short explanation, all those fallen trees on the slope after the eruption of mountain, covered with other layers of the debris of thousands of years in the future.

High-quality Indonesian opalized petrified wood, with a gorgeous blue and green “core” and beautifully preserved woody structures, polished to a beautiful shine on one side and the lustrous natural rough texture on the other side. High quality pieces like this are now becoming mined-out, difficult to find, and expensive. We searched our inventory and are selling our last pieces of material that are ready to sell. We have several pieces that are not yet polished and will be offering those later this year. Indonesian blue petrified wood formed when volcanic ash, mud and debris destroyed and buried trees and tree branches. Over millions of years, groundwater that is saturated with silica, copper and other elements seeped through the debris and into the wood, replacing the wood structure with brightly colored silica. Because of the high copper content in the water, many of the petrified wood pieces also have native copper (copper metal) inclusions. This beautiful piece has those copper metal inclusions.This piece exhibits a gorgeous green glow (fluorescence) under both long wave (365 nm) and short wave (254 nm) ultraviolet light. The ultraviolet light photos are taken with a $25 long wave 365 nm UV light called the AloneFire, which we sell separately (see link below).Location: Garut Regency, West Java, IndonesiaSize: 90 x 830 x 22 mm. 172 grams.https://www.oldearthminerals.com/shop/p/alonefire-sv003-10w-handheld-365-nm-long-wave-uv-lamp-with-premium-battery-battery-charger
