- Additional Information: Petrified wood is fossilized wood in which all organic matter has been replaced by minerals, while retaining the structure of the wood.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.
