Dendritic Limestone is the branch-like formations of manganese oxide crystallizing within the limestone. A dendrite is a superficial deposit of manganese oxide that has crystallized in a multi-branching tree-like pattern. This pattern is what fools us into thinking they are plant fossils. The name comes from the Greek word dendron (δενδρον) which means "tree", since the crystal's structure resembles that of a tree. 

Dendrites are stones of abundance and fulfillment; they help to create a positive environment and encourage mindful living. It can support one in deepening their connection to the earth and offer deep grounding energy. Limestone enhances the healing properties of dendrite and is a stone of purification. A grounding and centering stone, Limestone also attracts and helps you to focus on positive thoughts. Combined together, it is associated with the root chakra.
