This is a beautiful example of a colorful crystalline stromatolite from the Lower Ordovician of Wisconsin. Authorities believe that stromatolites were formed by masses of green or blue-green algae, or ''cyanobacteria''. This stromatolite specimen is believed to be 495 million years old! This colorful stromatolite has re-crystallized into a stunning display of druzy quartz. The natural, cherry-red coloration of this stromatolite is simply beautiful. This is a collectible example of the crystalline structure of a stromatolite.

A Certificate of Authenticity from EXTINCTIONS is included with this specimen.
