    False

    Explanation:

    Fossil cannot withstand the extreme pressure and temperature condition in case of igneous and metamorphic rock formation. Metamorphic rocks are high-grade rocks that are formed due to the high temperature and pressure condition and igneous rocks are formed due to the crystallization of magma and both of these rock-forming conditions do not provide a good site for the preservation of fossils. Here, the fossils get damaged when these rocks containing fossils come in contact with the hot intruding magma and due to its variation in pressure and temperature.

    So the above statement is false.
