Small amounts of impurities in the mineralized water add color to the fossilized wood. Such detailed preservation is possible because the organic wood molecules become coated and surrounded with smaller silica molecules. In other cases, the delicate cellular structures are preserved along with growth rings, bark and knots such that the petrified wood exactly resembles modern wood yet is heavy as stone when held, and clinks like porcelain. ![]() In some cases, the entire log is converted to stone and is solid like a cast of the original piece. After burial, mineralized groundwater begins to percolate through the wood, coating cell walls and filling the intercellular cavities with stone. Another circumstance could occur when forests are covered by volcanic ash. A flooding river can have bury the forest floor under a layer of sand and silt, for example. This petrification requires rapid burial of the wood to prevent normal decay. Petrified wood forms when real wood lies buried underground and its organic structure is gradually replaced with hard mineral. Fossil has been stabilized and is perfectly safe to handle and touch. ![]() NO REPAIR, ENHANCEMENT, POLISHING, OR RESTORATION. This is an immensely attractive fossil wood specimen and highly recommended either as a stand-alone accent piece or as an addition to a fossil wood collection to show the varying forms of petrified wood. This piece was dug so it had not been yet exposed to the elements of modern time thereby retaining its splendid detail. For collectors of fossil plants and petrified wood collectors, this is an extremely rare and unusual specimen with incredible natural life-like detail. There are very rare features that are not seen in your typical petrified wood. This is a large fossil prehistoric log from a tree that once lived in the Miocene Period in Central Europe. Unfortunately, when such modifications are done to the specimen, the fossil value of the wood is lessened and the piece becomes more of a pretty mineral showpiece rather than an educational and intriguing display fossil because the natural interior and exterior appearance has been modified or in some cases, destroyed. Petrified wood in its natural form is MUCH LESS prevalent on the market compared to sliced and polished examples. CLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT PLANT FOSSILS
