A petrified piece of wood is a fossilized wood where the organic materials have been replaced by minerals over time, resulting in a stony composition. This process occurs underground under specific conditions of pressure, temperature, and a lack of oxygen, leading to the preservation of the wood's original structure at a molecular level. Petrified wood can exhibit a range of colors and patterns based on the minerals present during the fossilization process.
