Description: Hollow Septarian Freeform Size: 5.15" x 3.4" x 3"130mm x 86mm x 76mmWeight: 34.35 oz974 gramsLocation: Madagascar 5.1" Hollow Septarian polished standup display stone from Madagascar. This display piece has been cut flat on the bottom, allowing the piece to stand on its own nicely. The piece is polished around the base stone for a smooth finish. These Septarian crystals were formed about 100 million years ago. Decomposing sea shells had an attraction for the surrounding sediment, forming mud balls under the sea. Tide and wave action rolled these balls around, creating sedimentary balls of a larger size. As the ocean receded, the balls were left to dry and crack, allowing Calcite crystals to form within them. Often, yellow Calcite crystals form within the empty chambers within the sedimentary formations as well but this material did not form the Calcite, allowing the dark brown Aragonite to form drusy crystals along its borders, hence the material is considered to be hollow. The name Septarian is derived from these dividing walls (septum in Latin.) This piece was then carved and polished from this material in Madagascar. Piece weighs over 2 lbs.
