Fossilization is the process of how fossils are formed.
Fossils are formed when organisms died, their bones quickly get buried in sediment.
Fossils are created when it's quickly buried after death then it get buried in sediment then dissolved minerals in water fill spaces in bones and last the pressure and chemical reactions transform the remains to a fossil.
There is many ways to create fossils, based on the type of material and conditions present.
Water helps fossilization by covering tiny spaces in the organism, then hardens and form a rock form.
Unaltered Preservation happens when organisms are preserved in a substance, such as amber, ice of tar. It keeps the tissue from decaying.
Carbonization occurs when carbon leaves behind a film on rock.
