Petrified Wood Reveals Gorgeous Rare Turquoise Opal Hiding Inside

The opal inside this piece of petrified wood is basically the mineral concentration of it, although opal can also form elsewhere. For example, archeologists have already found numerous shells and bones that were completely opalized, and the result is basically just as mind-blowing as the picture in question. The way the mineral looks inside this piece of wood can almost be described as magical. It might even make you wonder how opal is formed in the first place. These opals often form the basis for organic gemstones, and you'll often find them reworked somehow into beautiful jewelry such as opal rings and necklaces.
