This is because our material is a polished silicified wood with clear transverse, radial ...

Coal is a fossil fuel that is, essentially, "the altered remains of prehistoric vegetation," as the World Coal Association (WCA) puts it. However, there are a number of different coal types. Coal originally began to form during the Carboniferous period, which took place between 360 and 290 million years ago. Put simply, plant matter accumulated in swamps and peat bogs, and

Coal Balls. Because coal balls are accumulations of (degrading) plant material (technically peat), they also are an excellent source of various forms of decaying organisms, including fungi. Numerous fungal remains have been found in coal balls, including hyphae, spores, and various types of reproductive structures.

The coal formation process involves the burial of peat, which is made of partly decayed plant materials, deep underground. The heat and pressure of burial alters the texture and increases the carbon content of the peat, which transforms it into coal, a type of sedimentary rock. This process takes millions of years. Types, or "ranks," of coal are determined by carbon content. There are four ...

In geology, silicification is a petrification process in which silica rich fluids seep into the voids of Earth materials,, rocks, wood, bones, shells, and replace the original materials with silica (SiO 2 ). Silica is a naturally existing and abundant compound found in organic and inorganic materials, including Earth's crust and mantle.

The exceptional preservation of plant fossils falls into two categories: whole plant preservation and anatomical detail. Whole plant preservation is controlled primarily by transport and event preservation (, ash falls), whereas anatomical preservation can occur through one of several taphonomic pathways: compressionimpression, silicification, coalball formation, pyritization, and ...

Petrified wood has traditionally been divided into two categories based on preservation processes: permineralization (where tissues are entombed within a mineralfilled matrix) and replacement (where organic anatomical features have been replicated by inorganic materials). New analytical evidence suggests that for most petrified wood, permineralization and replacement are not independent ...

North Dakota petrified wood is variously preserved, from specimens that are well silicified, to splintery, and even grading to lignite coal (coalified trees). The degree of petrification can even vary within a single specimen; individual stumps or logs sometimes contain both well silicified and coalified parts.

Petrified wood is a fossil. It forms when plant material is buried by sediment and protected from decay due to oxygen and organisms. Then, groundwater rich in dissolved solids flows through the sediment, replacing the original plant material with silica, calcite, pyrite, or another inorganic material such as opal.
