Glauconitic fecal pellets with a
phosphatic rind. The bottle-green
color and the granular texture is a
strong indicator for glauconite;
the pleochroic wood-brown rind
indicates the presence of phosphate.
Digested and excreted phosphatic
components from the fecal pellets
diffused outwards and precipitated at
the contact with the seawater as
Fe-phosphate
