At work.
Well..... considering the speeds that pyroclastic flows clock in at?
Even Olympic athletes would end up as rock cavities.
Also note the difference between a Pompeii victim and a fossil.
The poor souls at Pompeii pretty much left nothing more behind that a cavity in the solidifying ash with bones at the bottom.
Also...... volcanic ash, mud etc is not bassalt rock either.
Some fossile have enough texture to make out skin creases.
Then there's the fossils where other minerals have replaced 'Bone' with opal. One 'Shiny' T-Rex there.
Cheers.
