Cracking of microorganisms at high temperature and pressure were examined for the existence of microfossils in sedimentary rocks of the Isna series. Microorganism specimens were examined for degradation by infrared spectroscopy over the wavelength range from 2.5 microns to 15 microns. Stability up to 380 C after which there is degradation towards graphite is shown. It is concluded that the preservation of microfossils is feasible in rocks metamorphosized at temperatures of 400 C.
