Petification is some weird S&M thing where a bloke strips his woman naked and makes her live as an obedient pet to him, maybe caged, on a leash, fetching sticks when he throws them etc... living their life like a cat or a dog or something

Petrification
What happens to wood after minerals replace the wood fibers?
Petrification.
What is preservation of dead organism by drying?
Mummification.
What causes a tree to become petrified?
Wood petrification is the process in which organic material is converted to stone by becoming impregnated with silica. The wood becomes soaked with mineral-laden water. The water evaporates at about the same rate as the wood decays and mineral crystals replace the wood.
How long does it take to petrify wood?
Wood can be petrified in a matter of days or weeks given the right chemical "cocktail'. Although the exact recipe is patented by Hamilton Hicks of Greenwich, Connecticut, the mix includes materials commonly found in areas of volcanic activity. Mineral rich waters containing calcium, magnesium, and manganese as well as some type of acid produce a bath that penetrates the wood and petrifies it. At the Department of Energy lab wood has been petrified by using an acid bath, followed by soaking in silica then being dried in an argon-filled furnace. In Queensland, Australia there have been numerous examples of fence posts, axe-chopped wood, etc with known dates in the early 1900's being buried then when later uncovered. It would appear that contrary to the common thinking on the subject of petrification the process does not take millions of years but rather a particular set of circumstances including acids, minerals, and hot and/or dry conditions. This explains how the wood grain is so perfectly preserved in the petrification process. If the process took millions of years the wood would have long since deteriorated and therefore the material which replaced it would not have the look and grain of wood.

What is in the process in which minerals replace tissues?
In geology, petrification 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. So yeah the answer is petrification
