What is the difference between petrifaction and permineralization?

Permineralization is the process of fossilization where mainly water mineral deposits take the form of the organism. The minerals harden with time and pressure from over laying deposits turning into rock. Petrification happens when silica binds with celulose of a plant and turns into stone often retaining the microstructure of the plant.

What are cast fossils?

One form of fossil forms when an organism dies and its body is covered by layers of sediment. As time passes, the organism itself, particularly when composed primarily of softer materials, is eroded and carried away, leaving a negative imprint of its body. This type of fossil is called a mold. A cast fossil forms when a mold fossil is filled with some form of mineral, usually through the seepage of water depositing the minerals within the mold. In time, the mold is filled and the materials deposited harden, creating a replica of the original fossil. This is called a cast fossil.
