DescriptionSequoia sempervirens - fossil redwood tree trunk (Sonoma Volcanics, Upper Pliocene, 3.2 to 3.4 Ma; Calistoga Petrified Forest, Coast Ranges, northwest-central California, USA) 2 (15715953037).jpg |
Sequoia sempervirens (Don in Lambert, 1824) - quartz- permineralized coast redwood tree trunk at Calistoga Petrified Forest, California, USA. The Calistoga Petrified Forest has been called the best-anywhere petrified forest of Pliocene age. The fossil wood here is preserved with the most common permineralization mineral - quartz. The preservation of these trees was the result of burial by a rhyolitic volcanic ash-flow tuff of the Sonoma Volcanics (Upper Pliocene). The volcanic tuff was erupted from a vent near modern-day Mt. St. Helena (= north of this locality). Classification: Plantae, Pinophyta, Pinopsida Pinales, Cupressaceae Stratigraphy: Sonoma Volcanics, Upper Pliocene, 3.2 to 3.4 Ma Locality: Calistoga Petrified Forest, northern side of Petrified Forest Road, west-southwest of the town Calistoga, eastern Sonoma County, Coast Ranges of northwest-central California, USA |
