The coldness of the ice stops things in the ice from decay, so if a fossil is in ice it won't decay. A few years ago in the Italian alps a mummy of a man was found when a glacier melted. He was dated to having been alive 5,000 years ago and his clothes, shoes, weapons, and other items were still intact enough to get information about him. The ice had preserved him for us to learn about him.

The so-called "ice man" had been preserved in deep freeze for only about 5000 years or so, so no fossilization had occurred.
