英文摘要The Chuaria is the most common fossils in the Ediacaran Lantian biota (approximately 600 Ma) of South China which represents one of the earliest-known macroscopic eukaryotic fossil assemblages with high morphological diversity. Although great majority of the Lantian Chuaria fossils are preserved as carbonaceous compressions, Chuaria has been reported to be commonly preserved as pyritization enveloped by aluminosilicate minerals in the upper Member II of the Lantian Formation. The outer minerals that envelope the pyrite layer have been assigned to quartz or aluminosilicate clay minerals. However, their exact mineral compositions as well as whether these minerals have contributed to the exceptional preservation of Ediacaran Lantian Chuaria, remain unclear. We employed light microscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and Raman spectroscopy techniques to revisit the preservation of pyritized Chuaria from the Lantian biota. Our taphonomic experiments show that pyritized Chuaria fossils are enveloped by platy minerals that are a complex mixture of quartz and magnesium-rich aluminosilicates. Integrated mineral and structural pattern analyses show that these quartz and clay minerals are both secondary overgrowth on Chuaria internal mold, which probably formed as a diagenetic product concurrent with carbonate dissolution in the Lantian black shales. Their formation is probably regulated by local micro-environment near the Chuaria bodies. These enveloped minerals may facilitate preservation and identification of Chuaria fossils, but they are probably not involved in the initial fossilization process as the early diagenetic pyritization has done.
