How about this article from
National Geographic;
T. Rex Soft Tissue Found Preserved
Here is a quote from the article;
""To my knowledge, preservation to this extentwhere you still have has not been noted in dinosaurs before, so we're pretty excited by the find," said Mary H. Schweitzer, a paleontologist at North Carolina State University in Raleigh."
It certainly doesn't sound like this tissue was "mineralized".

Sorry, screwed up the quote;
"To my knowledge, preservation to this extentwhere you still have original flexibility and transparencyhas not been noted in dinosaurs before, so we're pretty excited by the find," said Mary H. Schweitzer, a paleontologist at North Carolina State University in Raleigh.
