The light captured by the camera is not the light reflected off of the fossil. Instead, a powerful laser is used to induce fluorescence of the compounds composing the fossil. The laser’s light is removed from the image using a lens filter that blocks its specific wavelength. The skin and bristles are phosphatized and fluoresce yellowish, while the carbonaceous melanin pigment does not fluoresce and appears black. The blue is the resin used to hold the different slabs of rock together.https://jddixon.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/3png-fossil-leaves-mounted-for-xrf-scanning-at-argonne-768x1024-1.pngTalking with… Evan SaittaFossil leaves mounted for XRF elemental scanning in the Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory.https://jddixon.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/2png-first-ever-bone-montana-2009.pngTalking with… Evan SaittaEvan excavating his first dinosaur fossil, a small stegosaur rib in central Montana within a bone bed.
