ottawafossil101 Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 Hello, I guess I'm not really sure what kind of info I can get from this, but I was hoping to determine what location this specimen might have been collected... I picked this specimen of petrified wood up at a pawn shop in Guelph. The employee said it had been in the shop for over 12 years, and the tag said 'found in Guelph, Ontario'. Whether this is accurate or not I don't know and I can't seem to find anything similar to it. It appears there are even 'sap' deposits that mineralized differently than the rest and there is significant crystallization over the whole surface of the specimen. Any information or direction would be greatly appreciated. Side A: Side B: Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranha Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 Looks like a distinct possibility for the bark structure of the Ontario Devonian genus: Callixylon. Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
