@buck8point it’s a light honeycomb like structure not a heavy hard substance like petrified wood I could be wrong
Ok I see what you are saying..
Looked again really close, at the first 2 pics and looks like they are comprised of multiples of tubules that are bunched together and running in one general direction, which to me is exactly what one would expect to see in a wood section, or maybe even palm wood, or some other ancient woody plant. and the way some of the breaks look exactly how wood would break to me anyways..
it may be light and seem hollow because the mineral that replaced the actual tissues may be lighter, and since the tubules are seemingly hollow, you end up with only half the weight than if it was solid.
Anyways thats my best evaluation from seeing pics and not putting hands on.
Nice pieces nonetheless.
Top 2 are petrified wood, bottom could be sponge , fungus , think mushroom.
