Gem Dinosaur Bone is authentic silicated dinosaur fossil material preserved through natural mineralization, making it a unique lapidary stone for collectors and jewelry makers. During the fossilization process, silica replaces the original bone structure while preserving distinctive cellular patterns, with colors derived from minerals present during formation. All available Gem Dinosaur Bone is old stock material, as collecting from public lands is now federally prohibited.
