The mineralization was what preserved the soft tissue. The minerals were latticed around the soft material and had to be removed before the material was again soft. Nothing in the article questions or brings any uncertainty to the age of the fossil. This creature must have been fossilized very quickly and not left laying around. This would be similar to the fossils that preserve skin impressions and indications of feathers and internal organs. The article is pretty complete.

Of course not, that would go against their religion.

Let’s see some C-14 dating evidence on this soft tissue.
