  2. Silicification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicification

    The rate of silicification depends on a few factors: 1) Rate of breakage of original cells [20] 2) Availability of silica sources and silica content in the fluid [1] [3] 3) Temperature and pH of silicification environment [1] [3] 4) Interference of other diagenetic processes [3] [21] These factors affect the silicification process in many ways.

    This accounts for the detail found in permineralization. Silicification reveals information about what type of environment the organism was likely to have lived in. Most fossils that have been silicified are bacteria, algae, [3] and other plant life. Silicification is the most common type of permineralization. [4]
