    Petrified wood (from the Greek root petro meaning "rock" or "stone"; literally "wood turned into stone") is the name given to a special type of fossilized remains of terrestrial vegetation. It is the result of a tree or tree-like plants having completely transitioned to stone by the process of permineralization. All the organic materials have been replaced with minerals (mostly a silicate, such as quartz), while retaining the original structure of the stem tissue.

      Post it up there Mr.SB it's hard to show the true beauty of them in a photo.
      I found some fossilized Faviidae (Stony Corals) out in the woods I only took one piece of the 8 or 10 found there but it looked so cool where it was I couldn't see taking all of what nature put there so long ago, It's about a foot long
