I’ve seen the process. They take the fossils and soak them in acid until the minerals all get dissolved away. They then neutralize and wash the acids away. What is left is the collagen and other soft tissue. If they took it one step further and dried it and ground it up, they’d have something like gelatin. This works for any fossil, no matter how old.

It's not really soft, anyway, no more than leather from a saddle or holster.
