Pyrite morphology and sulfur isotopes refine taphonomic models for the 2.1 Ga Francevillian biota, Gabon

Abstract Pyritization is a key taphonomic process that preserves some of Earth’s oldest fossils. It is influenced by various factors such as organic matter type, the availability of iron and sulfur, and sedimentation rates. In this study, we analyzed pyritized biotic and abiotic structures from 2.1 ...
