Petrified wood is formed when a piece of wood is buried in mud, not allowing for typical decay. The surrounding groundwater deposits silica and other minerals that very slowly replace the tree's organic substance and add unique color patterns to the wood. The minerals that comprise petrified wood depend on the geographic location of the wood and the conditions under which it is formed. In the western United States, for example, petrified wood is often made of quartz, which is a silica mineral. Because it is composed of minerals, petrified wood is much heavier than a regular tree log; petrified wood can weigh anywhere between 150 and 200 pounds per cubic foot. on sale
