摘要
The criticism by Pasteris and Wopenka of our use of laser–Raman imagery to investigate the carbonaceous make-up of extremely ancient fossils1 focuses only on their Raman signature; however, our interpretation that the carbonaceous matter that makes up these specimens is biogenic is based on several lines of evidence, of which Raman spectroscopy is only one.
