- Petrified wood is one of my favorite fossils and also one of the most recognizable ones but not all petrified is the same. Depending on where its from, the species of tree, and the environment while its fossilizing, it can come in an assortment of colors, shapes and textures.
I don't know if you're going to see this comment, but I just gotta say, you're absolutely wonderful. This was very informative and I really enjoyed your knowledge and love of nature.
What’s up with all the farting? 💩😳 :50 was the first of a few
i came straight to the comments to see if i was the only one who heard it too 😂
😂🤣
Omfff in dead! Hahaha
She shitting her pants lmao
Wow, I just had a psychedelic experience ("the wood in the tree is clearly bit by bit replaced by the minerals in the water"). It reminds me of the movie "Annihilation".
I fell in love and this is something I will collect
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.
Well...Now I know why my "peanut tree" hasn't ever produced any peanuts. I'm getting my axe...
chris faith Yes Chris I'm afraid you've been bamboozled. ;)
@@everythingnature2380 du you have facebook,,,i have stone but i don't no the name of stone
Wow..., great thinking
How do I know if I have petrified prehistoric lil nano apples, lil nano Petrified potatoes, or gigantic prehistoric peanuts??
IS OPAL PETRIFIED POTATOES???
I'm petrified you'd do that.
@@joelcapian9077 It's probably a piece of 'Leveright'...there.
Maybe you should get a geology book on identification of Rocks & Minerals? It's really quite easy...
Just visited the petrified national park in Arizona and Im glad I found your excellent description of what we just saw :) Thanks!
I like how you laughed at your own joke of the tree falling in the woods! Enjoyed the video
I have some of it around my pond and it looks so awesome
Thanks for the information!
Love this video! I think this is the first time I've ever Liked and Subscribed on the first taste!! Thank you for a dope video. I visited the petrified forest in Arizona, USA, when I was a kid, and have been fascinated ever since. So cool. Thanks, hostess with the mostest! and
I like your enthusiasm and personality.
loveeed your videoooo. Thanks for all the information and knowledge. Now I love my piece of petrified wood even more.
I appreciate petrified wood so much more now. Thank you.
great thinks for valuable precious knowledge about lost history of fossils
Thanks for sharing cool stuff and being awesome 🙂😁
Very smart lady. Thanks for the video
Thanks for the info 👍🌿🐟🌿💚
Thank you so much for this video, super useful information and great examples. :)
Well done! Thanks for the video!
nicely done. thanks, I like petrified wood also
Another excellent video!!
nice explanation, love the opal in that one :)
Come to Las Vegas, NV and I can show you an interesting p-wood deposit just outside of town. Well preserved wood and voids left in the rock from incomplete fossilization. An amazing geologic strata.
Electricity also petrifies trees.. it happened in Canada when I power line fell over some tree stumps, it turned the wood into stone....
Awesome
Thats not petrified wood cause it didnt contain the minerals present in the wayer
Were you even watching this video?
yeah i read about that, the chemical composition was identical to petrified fossils
cool story mate, tell us another
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.
yes i love the pet wood too , beautiful stuff
Do you know of any products I can use to polish a petrified wood table top??
Petrified wood is absolutely my fav type of fossil as well. I love the ones that are silica or iron based. I have some that have yellow red and green stripes with a copper/clay outside. Just beautiful
Peace N Love
Hello. Your video is full of interesting insight! Thank you. I found a bunch of petrified wood in the south of Argentina. I have no idea what to do with it all. Any suggestions? Thanks!
Great explanation TY
Great video!!
Great video..Highly interesting..I've learnt a lot👍
Interesting and very informative thx.
Great video thank you!!
this collection is awesome=)
What kind of fossil is that right behind your left shoulder under the silver looking one? The square one with the little dimples all over it.
Very good video...very informative.👍🇬🇧
I love your shirt! Where can I get it!? Thanks for the video, great collection!
So cool!
But more importantly than does it make a sound, do all the other trees mourn the loss or did the tree die so long ago that all the trees have already mourned the loss? For reals im curious now that i know it makes a loud sound.
Well explained thank you!!
Thanks for your informations !!
We do have a tree called the peanut tree and it is from around north nsw into queensland east coast tropical areas. it is a lovely tree which flowers yellow and peanut fruit matures into a red pod with segmented peanut like nuts
Nice video. I have a piece of petrified wood. Now I can explain it to my friends. I thought it was just another pretty rock. How it made it's way here from Arizona must be an interesting story.
They aren't all from Arizona. There are large petrified forests in Arizona, California, and other places, but there are isolated pieces of petrified wood around the world
beautiful.
Loved your vid thanks ''Amiga.
Would this be more like working with stone or wood? What kind of knife handle scales would it make 🤔
How can I identify,what species of petrified wood the tree was when it was alive?
Thank You, this video was perfect for my school Science project.

@@jayh9529 I have the petrified wood stones Tanzania
So anything organic will turn to gemstone if oxygen is removed?
Hello how do we unpetrify the wood?
How hard is petrified wood? Can animals become petrified? What’s the most common or most expensive? I wish you covered these questions and more. Maybe another follow up video?
What is the mineral at 13 seconds??
Thank you, I can see why it’s your favorite. Now I want to know more.
we have a lots here like the rock in the last portion view...is that have a market value? and then the other here like a diamond shapes...
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.
so what happends if i just cut down a tree and start floding it with water?
I love this!
Amazing...
I would like to send you a sample of pet wood & pet cactus I have found in the so cal desert. How do I do that?
Makes you wonder if some of the posts driven into the canals of Venice have started to go through the process.
Your so funny! Enjoyed your video.
I made tables n benches from petrified woods (couple sets), and 2 logs stil there to observe
amazing video
nice video thankyou .-) ps why is the wood shiny?looks like some sort of glaze put on it? i was thinking of adding some petrified wood to my garden as we have it in the river here how can i preserve it?thanks shaz
shaz x it’s a rock, you don’t have to preserve it
It’s interesting that Coal can be made in a Lab in weeks!
I have a decent looking piece that has been in an outdoor fountain for YEARS. I was walking by it yesterday and thought it would look great in my cichlid aquarium. I was right.
Good video!
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?
Maybe because it happens at different times in the prosess
call me crazy or whatever but I was thinking of tiling a bathroom with petrified wood anybody think this is possible
Joe Ellis yes it is very possible and would be very durable. However it will require a lot of cutting unless you are a fan of really hard jigsaw puzzles.
Believe it, I had the same thought. Get a long petrified tree and cut it into planks then squares so as to keep the pattern along the wall. Regards!
I saw such tiles yestererday! looked nice ! Didn't bother checking price as I live in a rented house.
i considerd making tiles from petrified wood. I came up with either wet setting the peaces in grout, or making tile sheets with a piece of canvas... like the ones you see at home dept
There’s a 6 foot log online for sale 150$ delivered.wet saw
Rainbow coloured opal wood is found in Australia, cool vid
can you still lite a fire with the Petrified wood ?
This was pretty helpful! i came across a rock that looked and somewhat felt like wood, i had to know what it was called.
i came across this video and my tiny rock looked a lot like some of these minerals on this video, so it has to be this so called "Petrified" wood.

I'm jealous ! ))) Nice !
So who cut the oak one
Thank you
Hello Everything nature! My son cracked open a black walnut and found the neatest pattern inside. We wanted to preserve it to keep. What is the best way to do this? Thank you
Soak in an acidic solution then a silicate solution then bake.
are petrified woods precious? for sell? cos a lot of in our city
Thanks love the peanut wood lol
Hello! I found some petrified wood and when I tap something on it, it sounds like glass. I have a few pieces like that and I was wondering what kind of wood is it? Why does it sound like glass?
Thanks! 😊
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.
Awesome
great vid i love pet wood too very unique and peanuts are dumb they aren't a nut at all they are a lugume
Question for u can a heart preterfire i have a preterfired heart if so ??
i have some very strange rocks looks like shells and stuff on outside but broke the rock and very shiny and fossils inside and very smooth where it breaks can you help me finf out more about these rocks i have a lot of them i can make a video showing the rock im talking about im make the video in a few mins thanks for you to help please
Only if there are ears to recieve the vibrations from abovesaid falling tree can it be heard.
Also where is the seed of a tree?
This was the inspiration for Sudowoodo. It's a rock type Pokemon that looks like a tree. It confused many kids, including me.
You have any for sale
I found out its not illegal to take the petrified wood from the Arizona State Park. People are returning their piece back to the park. I plan to also.
It's awesome I have a beautiful piece I'm in Texas and it's heavy
We have a lot of them in the Egyptian desert, I collected some pieces they are magnificent stones.

I have found petrified wood here in our pasture .It weights thousandths kls not for sure .I'm from Kalinga, Philippines.
So fascinating. Tell me, how long does it take for petrifaction to occur in most species of wood? I have heard the process can be sped up in lab conditions with a vacuum chamber, minerals and heat. Is this true? I would really like to find some semi petrified wood. I heard that a foot was once found in a cave inside a boot and both were semi petrified
It can take less than 2 weeks to petrify wood as well as other organic matter. Why didn't you learn this in elementary school?
I enjoy ur education..as my kids!
I have about 400lbs of petrified wood. It looks like the same tree all sizes biggest about 20lbs are so. How can I find out what kind of tree it is? I’m not sure what to do with it. 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

I love petrified wood iv always wanted to find some..where would be a good place to look here in North Carolina?
In the swamp areas

How do I know its not a rock and that its really a petrified one ?
Good presentation, it'd be nice if the lighting and audio was a little cleaner though.
More videos now. . . Please?
If it were mud or floods we would have petrified wood everywhere, I thought volcanoes with ash fall but then we would have petrified wood around every volcano ,, something bigger happened ,,,
I much prefer the well preserved petrified wood, like that oak. Otherwise it mostly look like some other stones. I've always liked a deep gloss finish on wood furniture but ever since I found a piece of petrified wood and polished it. I've been dreaming of having a huge table top from a single slab of petrified wood, especially with the bark still preserved.
check out the russel-zuhl collection on you tube, amazing - expensive!!
and I imagine you're still dreaming?
