A fossil is evidence of a once living animal. A fossil is created when an animal dies in a mud or other soft dirt or sediment. Over time, the animal will decompose and leave t â¦ he bones. Over time, these bones will get covered by dirt, rocks water, etc.
It should say 'Fe'. 'Fe' as found in 'fe'rrous. Ferrous things contain iron because the metal 'iron' is represented by the symbol Fe. Something non-ferrous is devoid of iron. Thus, a non-ferrous metal is a metal (or a mixture of two or more metals) that contains inconsequential amounts or no amount of iron. They are therefore nonmagnetic and don't rust like ferrous metals do.
These in turn are effected by heat treating or mechanical working. Most non-ferrous metals can only be hardened by work hardening, hammering, rolling, bending. But they can be softened by annealing which is heating to a red heat and then cooling quickly (opposite to steel, see below).
