Fossil forests have worldwide distribution, commonly preserving mineralized wood that displays vivid hues and complex color patterns. However, the origin of petrified color has received little scientific attention. Color of silicified wood may be influenced by the presence of relict organic matter, but the most significant contribution comes from trace metals. This study reports quantitative ...

Silicified Dadoxylontype wood occurs in different horizons of sandy/arkosic fluvial facies and is more common; one of the best known is the Štikov Arkoses of the Kumburk Formation, which is stratigraphically correlated with the Žaltman Arkoses in the ISB due to the occurrence of those fossils (Pešek et al., 2001).

In recent years there has been a major effort, building on the work of Carlquist (1975, 2001) to compile a list of fossil wood features (FIGS., ) believed to be of ecologic versus phylogenetic significance, and to use these with other proxy records, such as leaf physiognomy, to infer paleoclimate of fossil angiosperms (Wiemann et al., 1998, 1999, 2001).

The mechanism of wood coalification initiates with a biochemical process where wood is transformed into peat (peatification) and then trough aerobic and anaerobic reactions (humification and gelification) into soft brown coal (lignite) [35], [36], [37].Subsequently, via a geochemical process through elevated temperature and pressure, soft brown coal is converted into hard brown coal ...

Samples of silicified peat were obtained from a 3kmlong outcrop of chert in the northern Prince Charles Mountains, East Antarctica (see Slater et al. fig. 1 for a map of the sampled locality).

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 ...

A study of silicified wood from the Triassicaged Chinle Formation of Arizona supports the parameters above. Sigleo (1979) compared the geochemistry of silicified wood and its associated sediments (sandstone with some siltstone and clay) to determine the environmental conditions for the process of wood mineralization.

1. By filling the empty spaces with some mineral, as water fills the empty spaces in a sponge. This is called permineralization. Dissolve this mineral, and the original piece of wood remains. 2. By filling the empty spaces with mineral, then dissolving the cellulose and wood fibers and replacing them with mineral matter, often of a different color.

• Petrified (fossilized) wood is created by permineralization or replacement by a mineral. The mineral quartz, usually jasper or agate, commonly replaces the organic wood material to create petrified or fossilized wood. Jasper, opal, chalcedony or even pyrite can sometimes replace shell material of marine invertebrates through the same process.

The volumetric energy density of biomass is much lower than that of coal. For example, volume energy density of raw wood is 58 MJ/m 3 while that for typical coal is 3040 MJ/m 3 because of lower density (350680 vs. kg/m 3) and lower heating value (~1721 vs. 2433 MJ/kg dry basis) of the biomass (Table ).

Stein made the generalization that quartz in silicified wood was typically a result of diagenetic transformation from an opaline precursor. This opal A → opal CT → quartz transformation sequence is welldocumented for the diagenesis of siliceous marine sediments and for siliceous hot spring sinter, but evidence from fossil wood is less clear.
