Biominerals Fossilisation: Fish Bone Diagenesis in Plio–Pleistocene African Hominid Sites of Malawi

Biominerals Fossilisation: Fish Bone Diagenesis in Plio–Pleistocene African Hominid Sites of Malawi

Fish fossilisation is relatively poorly known, and skeletal element modifications resulting from predation, burial and diagenesis need to be better investigated. In this article, we aim to provide new results about surface, structural and chemical changes in modern and fossil fish bone. Fossil sampl...
