No, an ice core is not a fossil. Ice cores are cylindrical sections of ice drilled from glaciers and ice sheets that contain layers of ice accumulated over thousands of years, capturing climate data and atmospheric composition from various historical periods. Fossils, on the other hand, are the preserved remains or traces of ancient organisms, such as bones or imprints, typically found in sedimentary rock. While both provide valuable information about Earth's history, they originate from different processes and materials.
What else can I help you with?

How can a fossil be preserved in ice?
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.
