Tracing ancient microbial cells embedded in silica (TRACES)

Date du début: 1 mai 2015, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2020,

Reconstructing the nature and habitat of early life is a difficult task that strongly depends on the study of rare microfossils in the ancient rock record. The preservation of such organic structures critically depends on rapid entombment in a mineral matrix. Throughout most of Earth’s history the oceans were silica-supersaturated, leading to precipitation of opal deposits that incorporated superb ...
