Rockwood Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 I think one would need to study a thin section under a microscope to know for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpc Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 I agree with Rockwood. Some woods are identifiable as to locality by sight, so maybe someone can tell you where it might be form, but to get a species of tree you usually have to thin section it (palm wood and paleozoics being exceptions). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
