Petrified wood is a fossil formed by the infiltration of minerals (quartz for this specimen) into cavities between and within cells of natural wood. The petrifaction process occurs well beneath the earth's surface where wood has become buried under sediment. This replacement of organic tissue by mineral deposits can be so precise that the internal structures as well as the external shape of the wood can be perfectly preserved. These specimens are millions of years old, some even being around 90 million years old.

Petrified wood is a grounding stone that connects one profoundly to the Earth’s energy. It is a tree that has undergone a metamorphosis to become quartz. It is a stone of transformation and new beginnings. It helps you to shed unnecessary energy as you start a new path while still retaining the ancient wisdom needed for you to be successful moving forward. It is the perfect stone to work with when starting a new business, initiative, or large project.
