The bestknown and moststudied petrified wood specimens are those that are mineralized with polymorphs of silica: opalA, opalC, chalcedony, and quartz. Less familiar are fossil woods preserved with nonsilica minerals.

Type # 1. Petrification: Petrification is the best but perhaps the rarest type of fossilisation. This literally means transformation of the organic tissues into stone.

Abstract In the vicinity of Yücepinar Village of Zile district of Tokat province, there are silicified wood formations in agglomerate levels in the Çekerek formation Middle Eocene aged. These formations consist of well— preserved tree trunks of about m in diameter or branches and trunk parts in mm—1 m length. Generally, they are openbrownish cream; in some places they demonstrate ...

Geological Setting and Stratigraphic Age. Samples of silicified peat were obtained from a 3kmlong outcrop of chert in the northern Prince Charles Mountains, East Antarctica (see Slater et al. fig. 1 for a map of the sampled locality). The silicified interval is ca 40 cm thick and caps a coal seam representing the topmost bed of the Toploje Member within the Bainmedart Coal Measures, the ...

The coal ball contains Stigmaria (Lepidodendrales), Sphenophyllum (Equisetales), Myeloxylon (Medullosales) and some gymnosperm wood. More recently, Césari et al .

North Dakota petrified wood is variously preserved, from specimens that are well silicified, to splintery, and even grading to lignite coal (coalified trees). The degree of petrification can even vary within a single specimen; individual stumps or logs sometimes contain both well silicified and coalified parts.

An extensive lithic workshop and raw material procurement site was discovered near West Rainy Butte, Slope County, North Dakota, in 1982 during the University of North Dakota archaeological field school. The site covers over 500,000 m2 on a small ridgetop approximately 2 km southwest of West Rainy Butte (Fig. 1). Pebble, cobble, and small bouldersized pieces of silicified material (chert) are ...

Some supporters of the in situ theory believe that Stopes' and Watson's discovery of a plant stem extending through multiple coal balls shows that coal balls formed in situ, stating that the drift theory fails to explain Stopes' and Watson's observation.

Calcareous Mineralizaton, Including Coal Balls First described in 1855 [11], coal balls are calcareous concretions that widely occur in Carboniferous coal beds. A summary of the extensive literature can be found in [12]. Preservation of plant remains is variable, but many specimens show excellent anatomical detail.

The exceptional preservation of plant fossils falls into two categories: whole plant preservation and anatomical detail. Whole plant preservation is controlled primarily by transport and event preservation (, ash falls), whereas anatomical preservation can occur through one of several taphonomic pathways: compressionimpression, silicification, coalball formation, pyritization, and ...

Coal was found where the silicified wood of log ML was still in contact with the host sediment, and appears to have originally surrounded the outer edge of the silicified wood. The upper surface of this large specimen (253 cm in length, with a minimum radius of 18 cm) was exposed to weathering; thus it is impossible to say whether coal ...

In geology, silicification is a petrification process in which silica rich fluids seep into the voids of Earth materials,, rocks, wood, bones, shells, and replace the original materials with silica (SiO 2 ). Silica is a naturally existing and abundant compound found in organic and inorganic materials, including Earth's crust and mantle.

Petrified wood has traditionally been divided into two categories based on preservation processes: permineralization (where tissues are entombed within a mineralfilled matrix) and replacement (where organic anatomical features have been replicated by inorganic materials). New analytical evidence suggests that for most petrified wood, permineralization and replacement are not independent ...

For many decades, wood silicification has been viewed as a relatively simple process of permineralization that occurs when silica dissolved in groundwater precipitates to fill vacant spaces within the porous tissue. The presence of specific silica minerals is commonly ascribed to diagenetic changes.

When a fossil organism is subjected to mineral replacement, it is said to be petrified. For example, petrified wood may be replaced with chalcedony, or shells replaced with pyrite. This means that out of all fossils, only the creature itself could be fossilized by petrification . And not all fossil organisms are petrified.
