“The fossil of a creature called archaeopteryx provides strong evidence for this theory as it closely resembles theropod dinosaurs.”

“The guy is a fossil and the last time he was part of any success was in the 1970s.”

“The guy's a wackadoodle fossil and nuclear apologist, making snarky comments about wind turbines and climate change.”

“The complexity of the fossilization process is reflected in the presence of different textures in adjacent cells of the same tissue.”

“This may not be fossilization as we know it, of large macrostructures, but fossilization at a molecular level.”

“The party Polaroid is not so much an evocation of a past event as it is an instant fossilization of the present.”

“In the fossilisation process, the original organic parts of the shark's tooth are replaced by minerals such as iron pyrites and silica.”

“By demonstrating that soft tissue can be mineralised in the laboratory we had discovered a new approach to investigating this important mode of fossilisation.”

“The almost minuscule teeth are somewhat round and stained yellowish-brown by the fossilisation process.”

“I witnessed the slow burial of dead shells and bones, whose long journey toward fossildom was just beginning.”

“Insect palaeontology depends on assigning fossils to extant taxa usually on the basis of wing characters.”

“A Pliocene age for the Siesta palaeosol and Nothofagus fossils has been inferred from diatom and palynological biostratigraphy.”

“The occurrence higher in the succession of nummulites and neritic fossils indicates overall shallowing upwards.”
