You and Brian peddling lies again?
From the original paper cited in BTMS’* piece of rubbish....
“Previous examples of SOFT TISSUES FOSSILISED in this way have been limited to samples extracted from amber or inside bone a very rare set of circumstances.”
Stop lying.
You are late to the party. You assertion has already been rebutted. Next.
Oh yeah, and stop lying!
"After first sighting the material, we completed a series of highly detailed analyses to limit the possibility that it was simply an artefact of preservation or something unrelated to the biology of the animal.” says UCD geologist, Dr Maria McNamara, the lead author of the report.
”We noticed that there had been very little degradation since it was originally fossilised about 18 million years ago, making it the highest quality soft tissue preservation ever documented in the fossil record.”
According to the University College Dublin geologists, the muscle tissue is organically preserved in three dimensions, with circulatory vessels infilled with blood.
Using the same sampling methods and high resolution imaging that led to this find, scientists will now begin to investigate existing fossils in national museums and elsewhere across the world, for similar types of soft tissue preservation.
Although examples of soft tissue preservation are likely to remain incredibly rare, further discoveries will help scientists paint a better picture of life on earth since the beginning of evolutionary time."
