Coprolites are the
fossilized contents of the intestine and the excrement of organisms, or quite simply they are fossilized feces.
These rare and wonderful fossils provide valuable clues to the diets of extinct creatures. A truly exotic gift!
We take great care in verifying to the best of our ability that all
Brushy Basin Coprolites we sell are bona fide fossil feces! (See our many '
Dinosaur Coprolite' selections)PETRIFIED WOOD-
Petrified Wood is formed when water containing dissolved minerals seeps
into the wood and replaces the organic cells with colorful mineral laden
silica.
Limb cast
fossils are formed when a limb is covered with sediment. The limb decomposes leaving a hollow mold. The mold then fills with dissolved minerals creating an exact
cast of the limb, some in brightly colored silica. (See our many 'Limb Casts and Petrified Wood' selections)DINOSAUR BONE-
Large and small specimens of fossilized
dinosaur bones from the late
Jurassic period, 160 million of years old! The deserts of the American southwest (notably
Utah) produce many fine specimens. Most fossilized bone, teeth and claws are made of ordinary mineral matter (
silica), but some dinosaur fossils are fossilized in very
hard, rare, and more exotic gemstone materials like
jasper and
agate! (See our many 'Fossilized Dinosaur Bone' selections) CABOCHONS-
Our
cabochons are crafted from
gem-quality
agate
dinosaur bones,
coprolites and
petrified Wood. The rounded surfaces are highly polished but not faceted. The backs
of our cabochon-cuts are flat and unpolished, unless noted. Some of our cabs are laminated to create cabs of different materials. Some cabs are cut to a specific sizes
and shapes. Others are freeform, sizes and shapes selected by the lapidary artist. (See our many '
GemFossil Cabochon' selections)
