In geology, petrifaction or petrification is the process by which organic material becomes a fossil through the replacement of the original material and the filling of the original pore spaces with minerals. Petrified wood typifies this process, but all organisms, from bacteria to vertebrates, can become petrified. Petrifaction takes place through a combination of two similar processes: permineralization and replacement. These processes create replicas of the original specimen that are similar down to the microscopic level.
கல் மரம் என்பது தாவரங்கள் மண்ணுள் புதைந்து பாறைப் படிவ நிலைமையில் இருப்பதைக் குறிக்கும். அதுவே பல கல் மரங்கள் ஒரே பகுதியில் இருக்குமாயின் அதைக் கல்மரக்காடு என்பதும் உண்டு. மிகப்பழமையான மரங்கள் பல கோடி ஆண்டுகளுக்கு முன்னரே வளந்திருக்கும். ஒரு கோடி ஆண்டுகளுக்கு முன்னர் 4 பனி யுகங்கள் உண்டானதாக வரலாற்றாய்வாளர்கள் கூறுவதுண்டு. அந்த காலங்களில் ஏற்பட்ட புவியியல் மாற்றங்களால் மரங்கள் மண்ணில் புதைந்துக் கல் மரங்களாகிவிடும். அந்த மரத்தின் வகையைக் கொண்டு அந்தப் புவியமைப்பின் காலத்தைக் கணிப்பதன் மூலம் ஒரு இடத்தின் தொன்மையான புவியியல் அமைப்புகளை கண்டறிய இயலும்.
