The seeds and core range in several hues from beige to orange. This rare preservation came from some giant over 100 feet tall) Araucaria mirabilis pine trees that were buried under volcanic ash over 160 million years ago. There is great demand for these beautiful pine cones as the site has been closed to collectors.
