Stromatolite reef from the early Archaean era of Australia
Article Abstract:
A multi-kilometre-scale palaeontological and palaeoenvironmental study of Strelley Pool Chart (SPC) is presented, wherein seven stromatolite morphotypes are identified in different parts of a peritidal carbonate platform. It is argued that the diversity, complexity and environmental associations of the stromatolites describe patterns that reflect the presence of organisms.

Evidence for low sulphate and anoxia in a mid-Proterozoic marine basin
Article Abstract:
The chemistry of shales deposited in the marine Roper basin in Australia, recording deep-water anoxia beneath oxidized surface water is presented. The reason for low sulphate and anoxia rate in a mid-Proterozoic marine basin is discussed.
