Petrified wood (from Ancient Greek “πέτρα” meaning ‘rock’ or ‘stone’; literally ‘wood turned into stone’),is the name given to a special type of fossilized remains of terrestrial vegetation.
Petrifaction is the result of a tree or tree-like plants having been replaced by stone via a mineralization process that often includes permineralization and replacement.
Its biggest quantities can be found in almost all the continents of the world.
