Jlark18 Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Found within creek bed in Orange County, California. Have had this one for some time now. Always thought it looked sort of like petrified wood but is difficult to tell. The answer may be more obvious to someone else. Appreciate any input. Thanks.

Fossildude19 Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 This looks like some sort of quartzite, rather than petrified wood to me. 1 3 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Rockwood Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Is the layering and swirl in the texture or on the surface ? It looks like it was cleaned with a wire brush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
