From it the author borrows the notion of pseudomorphosis a phenomenon where a mineral experiences total replacement by an alien mineral which eventually leads to a false formation. This often occurs as fissures and clefts appear within stratums that lead to water filtering in and washing out the crystal or original mineral leaving behind only the shape of the respective mineral."

Same goes with Steiner Jaspers Toynbee. There is overlap but their description of what follows the shift is different.
