Fossilized wood

Size is about 4 inches long and weighs about 14 oz. 

Fossilized wood, also called petrified wood, forms when old trees are buried and their wood is slowly replaced by minerals over millions of years. This turns the wood into stone but keeps its shape and details, like rings and texture. The colors depend on the minerals, such as quartz or iron. Fossilized wood helps scientists learn about ancient forests and climates, and people often collect it or use it for decoration.
