113: 73:(another fossiliferous sedimentary rock) in fossil preservation, as coquinas are mainly composed of small fragments of broken and crushed shells. Lumachelles may or may not contain complete bivalves including the shell, or alternatively only internal molds. While the term is mostly used for bivalve accumulations, other hard-shelled organisms can be occasionally encountered, such as 270: 24: 229:

and accumulate over time, hence becoming fossilized. During or after sedimentation the shells or carapaces may be dissolved or eroded away, producing internal molds.

Lumachelles can be originated when assambleages of organisms die in areas of high biological productivity, such as
