  The PYTHIA8/ANGANTYR model for heavy ion collisions was recently updated with
a mechanism for \textit{global colour reconnection}. The colour reconnection
model used is QCD colour algebra inspired and enhances baryon production due to
the formation of string junctions. In this paper, we present updates to the
junction formation and string fragmentation mechanisms, connected to heavy
quark fragmentation. This allows for the simulation of heavy quark
fragmentation, using junction formation, in heavy ion collisions. The framework
is validated for proton collisions, and we show results for charm baryon
production in proton-lead collisions.
