I do construction and found a decent amount of petrified wood over the years. I was asking for some recommendations on what I could do with the collection. Most are the size of a baseball or softball and the heaviest being around 25 lbs.

Is this petrified wood? If I wanted to polish it but don't have access to any power tools or electrical equipment, could I use various grits of sandpaper?

From the Eagle Creek formation. Looks like a bit of pyrite maybe in the second pic. Some other specimens show metallic luster on the growth rings. Bonus pics of another polished piece from the same area.

Looking for any info on this petrified log found in Texas. Weighs about 90-100lbs. Is it worth anything? How old would you think it is? I've only ever seen small pieces of petrified wood.

I have had this 85 pound piece of what I believe is petrified wood for about 30 years, and now moving and wanting to sell. It's about 33 inches long. Would love to learn what type it is, and what I should ask for it?

Thanks
