Carbonaceous film fossils are traces of plants or animals preserved as a thin film of carbon. All living organisms contain carbon. If they are compressed by layers of sediment fine details of the organism may be preserved. See http://facstaff.gpc.edu/~pgore/geology/historical_lab/preservationlab.php

How does a carbon-film fossil form?

A fossil is formed when the dead organism is buried in rock or parts of rock called sediments. The more sediment that builds up on plants or animals the more pressure and heat it is shown too,then circumstances force gas and liquid from the organism. A residue is left from the carbon which forms the outline of the body. This results in carbonaceous film.

The thin film of carbon that shows the outline of an organism?

A carbon film fossil is a thin layer of carbon residue preserved on a rock surface, capturing the outline or impression of an organism. These fossils form when the organic material of an organism decomposes, leaving behind a carbon residue that eventually hardens and becomes preserved in sedimentary rock. Carbon film fossils can provide valuable information about the shape and structure of ancient organisms.
