Fabrics of the Precambrian fossil sulfur-cycling biotas and a microfossiliferous stromatolite. (AC) Wispy irregular cobweb-like fabric of the ∼1.8-Ga Duck Creek fossiliferous chert (PPRG sample 062) and (DF) the closely similar ∼2.3-Ga Turee Creek (Kazput Formation) chert, compared with (GI) the regularly laminated fabric of a cyanobacterium- (photototroph-) dominated biota permineralized in stromatolitic cherts of the ∼725-Ma South Australian Skillogalee Dolomite. Arrows point to fossil microbial filaments.
