Does lamprophyre form fossils?
A lamprophyre is a type of ultramafic intrusive igneous rock. It is very rare for fossils to be formed in igneous rocks (and they usually only form as mold fossils in extrusive deposits). As such fossils will not form in lamprophyres.
Where are mold fossils located?
mold fossils are either located near water or cliffs.
What are the three types of fossils and how they are formed?
Fossils can form from pretty much anything. They normally form from animals fish and objects such as jewelry. Fossils are very unique things and show us what happened in history :) booooooooooggggggggggggiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeee mmmmmmmmmaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnn is a fossil as well ;)

molds and casts, trace fossils, petrified wood, and carbon filmThe four types of fossils are mold fossils, cast fossils, true-form fossils, and trace fossils. Mold fossils are impressions from when the plant or animal first decomposed. Cast fossils are plant or animal remains. True-form fossils are remaining body parts from an animal.

What are the five types of fossils that can be found in rock?

What are 5 kinds of fossils?
Petrified fossils: where organic material is replaced by minerals. Mold fossils: where the shape of an organism is preserved in sediment. Cast fossils: formed when a mold fills with minerals, creating a replica of the organism. Trace fossils: records of biological activity, like footprints or burrows. Amber fossils: organisms preserved in hardened tree resin.
Which part of an organism is preserved in cast and mold fossils?
Bones
What is more often found - a cast fossil or a mold fossil?
Mold fossils are more common than cast fossils. Mold fossils are formed when an organism or object leaves an impression in sediment that hardens into rock, while cast fossils are formed when a mold is filled in with minerals or sediment, creating a replica of the original organism or object.
