• The role of experiments in investigating the taphonomy of exceptional preservation (2016, background): “Plant cell walls have been partially replicated in silica (Channing and Edwards 2004) and in iron monosulphide (a precursor of pyrite) (Grimes et al. 2001) in experiments, but animal tissues decay too quickly and the relationship between the mineralization process and the morphology that survives…”
