Could it be linked to a migration? If a route were above it might explain why there are so many?

A guy I went to uni with is an engineer for a real (not carbon fibre) submersible company and holds the record for the deepest sub dive by an Australian which is almost the deepest point on Earth.

How do fossils form on the sea floor? It was my understanding they formed when bones were buried and the organic compounds were replaced by minerals. How does this happen if they're just sitting on the sea floor?
