References, infobox and controvery
I've just added a bunch of references about this topic, many around the controversy surrounding the collection and use of agatised dinosaur bones as jewellry. I attempted to find legitimate sources of information about the mineral content of the bones, but was unsuccessful.
As there has been a US Supreme Court decision stating that these bones are not gems/minerals, and there is no one set type of agatisation that the bones undergo, neither the rock nor the mineral infobox fit here. Therefore, I added an infobox for fossils. There is not much to be added to the infobox, but there is also no scientifically measured mineral information, so the other infoboxes would be completely empty.
I realise this may be controversial for those who use this material in jewellry making, or who collect it, but scientifically-speaking, it is a fossil and I could find no evidence of anyone arguing otherwise. Anfornum (talk) 12:19, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
