Three specimens of fossilized mammoth tusk. The fragments exhibit age-appropriate heavy wear, fractures, and chips, as photographed. The original material has been largely replaced by minerals, a process called permineralization, which hardens it into rock. The largest piece measures approximately 7" x 4" x 2.5" tall. The total approximate weight is 4 pounds, 8.7 ounces.
