History of Petrified Wood

Petrified wood is a fossil. It forms when plant material is buried by sediment and protected from decay due to oxygen and organisms. Then, groundwater rich in dissolved solids flows through the sediment, replacing the original plant material with silica, calcite, pyrite, or another inorganic material such as opal.

Some specimens of petrified wood are such accurate preservation that people do not realize they are fossils until they pick them up and are shocked by their weight.
