Authigenic Overgrowth

Authigenic Overgrowth is a diagenetic process in which minerals precipitate and crystallize on the surface of microfossils during early sediment burial, distinguished by the in situ formation of new mineral phases that incrementally cover or replace original biogenic structures without altering their fundamental morphology.
