Petrified wood is the name given to wood that has been turned into stone (fossilized) through the process of permineralization. All of the organic matter becomes replaced by minerals, while retaining many original structures such as tree rings. The color is caused by different metals that replace the original wood structure: for example, iron oxides create reds and oranges.
