Mineralised root mass?

Found in Central Auckland, heavily volcanic area. Have found volcanic bombs, glass etc in same place. This looks like a root mass to me but I've never seen its like before. Trace petrification? Is that even a thing?

 

Thanks in advance!

Ok I’m probably wrong but you mentioned volcanic activity. There used to be a guy on utube who would pour molten metal into ant hills or termite colonies etc and then dig them out and sell them. And what he dug out looked a lot similar to that.. could it be some kind of molten material that flowed into a insect colony?
