    Thanks for the video. At 3:12 what I don’t understand is that the bark part shows different color from the main trunk. The minerals that replace the tree cells should be the same (silicates with impurities), but why certain mineral with a special color only replaces the bark part, while other minerals of different color replace the main trunk part?

    Thanks! I hunt within eye shot of my house near the mountains in AZ. There are literally hundreds of washes in the rugged desert near me. A few days ago I found what I thought was petrified wood, but I was not sure. Now I am. It looks like the specimen you showed, same colors and matter. I very much enjoyed learning from you. ;-) This was very helpful to me.

    Hi, Love the channel!!!
    I have a question I've moved into a home that had a tree that had fallen and was cut but left the trunk. So in and around and under the tree trunk I have found the most beautiful rocks some are petrified that I can tell and then some are just colored rocks and some look like arrowheads and like tools that they would have used to help sharpen things. It's so weird every time I come out to hunt it's like rocks just appear there when I just was in that area yesterday I don't know. But I'm wondering is this common to be in anyone's backyard. It is located Tampa Fla.

    Hi . I like to constantly learn . Now I know quite a bit about petrifaction and found scientists can force the process somewhat for industrial applications like potentially harder cutting tools. It’s pretty wild to think an organic thing like a tree gets buried and over time the cellular structure gets filled up with silicates and minerals turning onto a stone type thing lime she says . So cool.

    So fascinating. Tell me, how long does it take for petrifaction to occur in most species of wood?

I heard that a foot was once found in a cave inside a boot and both were semi petrified

Thought about making a rock flowerbed with it. Some of it is discolored due to I dug it out an old burn pile. It was the leftovers from an old gas station in Texas about 1920,s. Is it worth anything the rock? Idk

    Thanks! 😊

    • @HiHi-ur3on
      @HiHi-ur3on 3 роки тому

      The type of wood wouldn't make it sound like glass as the properties would be dependent on the minerals the fossil is composed of. I'd reccommend searching for minerals that can sound like glass and trying to match it up with your specimen. To identify what type of wood it is you would need to study the rings and bark most likely.

    nice - and generally informative. But (1) it's pronounced dee-sid-you-us and doesn't rhyme with 'hideous'. and (2) both deciduous and coniferous trees have growth rings (it's even easier to count rings on a spruce or pine than on oak or aspen); the rings form during periods of slow growth (fall/winter) and is related to seasonality as somewhat explained in the video..

      Paul Newman petrified wood is extremely hard and so when it breaks it will leave farely smooth and clean breaks. These were not cut into slabs millions of years ago. If this were the case you would see marks left by saws because saws don't leave clean and smooth cuts
