About Mammoth ToothMammoth tooth preserves complex internal tooth structure that can produce distinctive bands, layers, and colors when cut and polished. Because mammoths are extinct, mammoth tooth is a finite material that cannot be produced again. All mammoth tooth used by Rough Cut Lapidary is legally sourced before purchase, and we retain available source information that accompanies the material. Mammoth tooth and mammoth ivory are different materials.
