Logs are found by farmers plowing their fields. The color can range from yellow to red with multi-colored Agate seams appearing in the Petrified Wood. In this case, one slab (pictured here) is a rich burgundy with pockets of fine clear Quartz in the center. The other slab (not shown) is a muted mustard color with intense yet subtle linear patterns, along with some small pockets of blue.
