Fossil coral from Morocco is a fascinating natural material that is mined mainly in the Atlas region, where once vast seas used to be. These corals, which lived here millions of years ago, are now petrified and serve as a popular souvenir or raw material for making decorations. Due to their beautiful patterns and diverse colors, from light gray to beige and brown, they are highly valued among collectors. Fossilized corals have not only aesthetic, but also historical value, because they remind us of ancient ecosystems and climatic conditions. In Morocco, fossil corals are often cut and polished to bring out their unique structure. They are also used in esoteric circles where they are believed to bring protection and harmony.
