Geologic Information
Found mostly in the flood plains and rivers of Utah and Colorado, gembone is made of fossilized dinosaur bone that has slowly been replaced with silica (SiO2). This creates a hard material the preserves the patterns and structures of the original dinosaur bone while also including amazing colors due to the inclusion of impurities in the silica as it is deposited.
