Fossil Inzeria intia stromatolites from the Bitter Springs Group
The Bitter Springs Group, also known as the Bitter Springs Formation is a Precambrian fossil locality in Australia , which preserves stromatolites and microorganisms in silica .[3] Its preservational mode ceased in the late Neoproterozoic with the advent of silicifying organisms.[4]
Fossils include exceptionally well-preserved cyanobacteria microfossils , as well as multiple stromatolite species, including Linella avis and Inzeria intia .[5] [6] This locality also has been claimed to contain eukaryotic green algae preservation, though this interpretation is debated.[7]
