"Seems everyone is spelling Petrifaction with an '-ication'. Even I have a friend who keeps saying it!!"

Because that is how it's spelled. The above poster put a link to it on Dict..com  I looked and the ~faction spelling is also on there with identical meanings. I don't know where the hell this ~faction spelling came from, petrification has NEVER been spelled that way in my lifetime. Seriously... petri-faction.... a FACTION has nothing to do with stone.
