WEBCoal balls: Basis the nature of fossilization, fossils are grouped into several types. Coal balls are one of the types. Coal balls are petrified plant organs of about spherical shape. They are formed by the infiltration of magnesium carbonate, calcium carbonate, iron sulfide, and more in the buried parts of plants.
WEBAug 1, 1975 · Four modes of preservation generally can be distinguished: (1) Cellular permineralization ("petrifaction") preserves anatomical detail, and, occasionally, even cytologic structures. (2) Coalified compression, best illustrated by structures from coal but characteristic of many plant fossils in shale, preserves anatomical details in distorted ...
