- Additional Information: Petrified wood is fossilized wood where all organic materials have been replaced with minerals, preserving the structure of the wood. The petrification process takes place underground when a tree is buried under sediment and can take millions of years. The smallest details can be immortalized, such as tree rings and various tissues. Petrified wood has a hardness of 7 on the Mohs hardness scale, which is the same as quartz.
