"Diadem Galaxy" is characterized by the many remains of fossils and gemstones, which are in the foreground due to the deep black base tone. The sedimentary rock processed in the STEINBILD "Diadem Galaxy" was formed about 420 million years ago when the Variscan mountain building occurred due to the collision of two continents.
History of origins
Each STEINBILD tells the probably oldest story in the world - our earth history
At the time of the formation of the natural stone of this STEINBILD, a Variscan mountain building (collision of two continents) took place. This started the unfolding of the Rhenish slate mountains Harz and Eifel.
Mineralogy
At the end of the age, lush forests emerged with the first ancestors of conifers and the first seed plants. The primitive ferns (vascular plants) had already spread over a wide area. These were able to develop and spread quickly because there were no large herbivores at the time. At the same time, the ammonites were developing well.
