Fossiliferous limestone is a type of sedimentary rock that contains abundant fossils. It is formed through the accumulation and compression of organic remains, such as shells, coral, and other marine organisms, along with sediments. The fossils preserved in fossiliferous limestone provide valuable insights into past life forms …
