DENDRITES 
(DOUBLE-SIDED EXAMPLE)


An example of branching 'dendritic' minerals which resemble fossilised plants

Solnhofen, Germany


A dendrite is a mineral that develops with a multi-branching, tree-like form.  The patterns are often mistaken for fossil plants. This classic example from Germany consists of an incrustation of iron and manganese minerals along joints in fine-grained limestone.
​​​​​​​Presented in a lidded gift box.
