Petrification is defined as the preservation of organic hard parts by mineral-bearing waters infiltrating the porous material after burial.
The common preserving minerals are silica, calcite, and iron compounds.
Fossils are not necessarily petrified.
So, apart from the above minerals, the answer to your Q is wide open.

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.
