Fossils: A petrified wood slice with carbon/manganese oxide mineralisation Indonesian, Triassic 34cm Petrified wood is a fossil in which the organic remains have been replaced by minerals in the slow process of being replaced with stone. Special rare conditions must be met in order for the fallen tree trunk or stem to be transformed into fossil wood or petrified wood. In general, the fallen plants get buried in an environment free of oxygen which preserves the original plant structure and general appearance. The other conditions include a regular access to mineral rich water in contact with the tissues, replacing the organic plant structure with inorganic minerals. The end result is petrified wood - a plant, with its original basic structure in place, replaced by stone. Exotic minerals allow the red and green hues that can be seen in rarer specimens. Petrified wood can preserve the original structure of the stem in all its detail, down to the microscopic level. Structures such as tree rings and the various tissues are often observed features, although in petrified wood from Indonesia, tree rings are often less evident due to the lack of seasons in the tropical climate. Petrified wood from Indonesia covers several areas in Banten and also in some part of Mount Halimun Salak National Park. The following 13 lots during the petrification process over millions of years have been mineralised by various elements including manganese, iron and carbon, giving them their distinct and varied colours.
