Geological and stratigraphic context of the studied Buck Reef Chert samples. Simplified geological map of the Barberton greenstone belt showing the location of the BARB-3 core, from which the studied samples were sourced; inset shows location within southern Africa. Simplified stratigraphic log of the BARB-3 core showing the position of the studied samples within the basinal (F6) and lower platformal (F8, F10) facies. Modified from Greco et al. (2018).
