Open AccessCalcitization of aragonitic bryozoans in Cenozoic tropical carbonates from East Kalimantan, Indonesia
Aragonite is commonly lost during the diagenesis of carbonate rocks, producing a significant bias in the fossil record. However, taphonomic loss of aragonitic biota can be nullified when skeletal aragonite is ...

Three-Dimensional Morphological (CLSM) and Chemical (Raman) Imagery of Cellularly Mineralized Fossils
Of all modes of fossilization, cellular mineralization, whether by the non-biologic process of permineralization (“petrifaction”) or by microbially mediated mineral precipitation (“authigenic mineralization”...

Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy and Raman (and Fluorescence) Spectroscopic Imagery of Permineralized Cambrian and Neoproterozoic Fossils
Among all problems confronting the study of permineralized (petrified) fossils—the most life-like remnants preserved in the fossil record—two stand out, the need for (1) accurate documentation of their three-...
