Microfossil-like tourmaline microlites in early Proterozoic nodular chert at Kiihtelysvaara, eastern Finland [PDF]
Many Proterozoic silicified sedimentary carbonates have been reported to contain remains of early micro-organisms. One of these localities in the Fennoscandian Shield is the village of Hyypiä at Kiihtelysvaara in eastern Finland, where a nodular chert ...

Rapid Reactivation of Deep Subsurface Microbes in the Presence of C-1 Compounds [PDF]
Microorganisms in the deep biosphere are believed to conduct little metabolic activity due to low nutrient availability in these environments. However, destructive penetration to long-isolated bedrock environments during construction of underground waste
