exhumación: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que "exhumación" se utiliza para referirse a restos humanos y no a un lugar, como una fosa. La expresión "exhumación de una fosa" no es recomendable pues lo que se hace es abrirla para exhumar los restos que hay en ella. En su lugar, "apertura de una fosa" es una alternativa apropiada. 3, record 1, Spanish, - exhumaci%C3%B3n

La fosilización de un relieve no es sino su desaparición bajo una formación nuevamente construida sobre él por los sedimentos, las proyecciones volcánicas u otras causas. Ulteriormente la erosión puede eliminar esas nuevas capas de terreno blando, dejando al descubierto, otra vez, aquel relieve que, fosilizado, se ha conservado prácticamente intacto. En geología se alude entonces a la exhumación de esa antigua formación. 2, record 2, Spanish, - exhumaci%C3%B3n
