Fig. 3. Trace element and rare earth element plots for NSB Fe-silicate BIF and jasper-carbonate BIF.

Fig. 3.

(A) Trace metals and phosphorus profile for NSB BIF (red is jasper-carbonate BIF and blue is Fe-silicate BIF) compared to Dales Gorge average [green; data from (62)]. New data are shown in table S1. (B) REE plots of hydrothermal sedimentary rocks of the NSB; data are from this study (table S1) and (93), normalized to average post-Archean Australian shale [PAAS; (99)]. (C) For comparison, Archean hydrothermal jasper and Fe-rich chert; data are from (53), (84), and (85).
