Can anyone tell me, if wood with this stamp, would be safe to burn on a log burning stove? Do this mean it's heat treated?

Yes, heat treated for phytosanitary reasons.

As they are heat treated they should be just like burning kiln dried wood. However this looks like a rather soft wood so although it might burn well it would also likely burn quickly which should give you some decent exercise as well as cheap heat.2

I burn pallets all winter, they're a staple source of heat for my wood burner, if you stack 4 pieces together they burn more like a log does and last longer than putting them on singly.
