Abstract

A theoretical mechanism for the silicification of wood is presented. Possible rapid burial and silicification are discussed within the framework of a young earth model. Laboratory means to implant silica in wood are reviewed. Autochthonous and allochthonous deposition of woody material in various locations is explored.
