Did you know?
- Exact location in Australia is unknown however they are sourced from carbonate seams in sedimentary basins.
- Dendritic calcite forms when mineral-rich fluids - particularly those containing manganese and iron - seep into fractures or bedding planes in limestone or other sedimentary rocks. As these fluids move through the rock, they deposit branching, tree-like patterns of manganese and iron oxides between layers of calcite. These dendritic inclusions are not fossils but mineral growths, and their intricate formations resemble ferns or foliage. In Australia, such formations are often found in sedimentary deposits where slow, low-temperature fluid movement allowed for the gradual precipitation of these striking patterns.
