An extensive lithic workshop and raw material procurement site was discovered near West Rainy Butte, Slope County, North Dakota, in 1982 during the University of North Dakota archaeological field school. The site covers over 500,000 m2 on a small ridgetop approximately 2 km southwest of West Rainy Butte (Fig. 1). Pebble, cobble, and small bouldersized pieces of silicified material (chert) are ...

from borings in Carboniferous wood have been reported by C. Brongniart ( 1877) and Williamson (1880), while Scott (1977) has described coprolites from Carboniferous shales. Coprolites contained in coal balls were noted by Mamay and Yochelson (1953) and later figured by them as 'coprolitic pellets of unknown organism' (Mamay

The coal formation process involves the burial of peat, which is made of partly decayed plant materials, deep underground. The heat and pressure of burial alters the texture and increases the carbon content of the peat, which transforms it into coal, a type of sedimentary rock. This process takes millions of years. Types, or "ranks," of coal are determined by carbon content. There are four ...

The exceptional preservation of plant fossils falls into two categories: whole plant preservation and anatomical detail. Whole plant preservation is controlled primarily by transport and event preservation (, ash falls), whereas anatomical preservation can occur through one of several taphonomic pathways: compressionimpression, silicification, coalball formation, pyritization, and ...

Petrified wood has traditionally been divided into two categories based on preservation processes: permineralization (where tissues are entombed within a mineralfilled matrix) and replacement (where organic anatomical features have been replicated by inorganic materials). New analytical evidence suggests that for most petrified wood, permineralization and replacement are not independent ...

Further, Taylor et al. (2011) have pointed out a bias in sample preparation, with thin sections of coal balls showing better preservation of fungal structures than acetate peels. That said, for example, while funginite was present in Pennsylvanian coals ( Richardson et al., 2012 ), it was not as diversified in the Pennsylvanian as in later coals.
