Sealing Petrified Wood

     This is probably a first for this list since Petrified wood is not granite but since this seems to be the most posted to forum then maybe someone out there has a suggestion.
     I am looking for a product that can seal the surface of Petrified Wood, 
which is of the Quartz family.
         I recently cut a large piece of Petrified wood to make a couple of
 headstones ( 14" x 22" x 4" thick ) for my Mother and Grandmother.  There are numerous  fractures that probably should be sealed since the stone will be out in the cold and wet weather in the NorthWestern U.S.
   What would you recommend to seal the surface and keep water out of the fractures??  Thanks,    John
