Chemostratigraphy of Neoproterozoic carbonates: implications for 'blind dating' [PDF]
The delta C-13(carb) and Sr-87/Sr-86 secular variations in Neoproteozoic seawater have been used for the purpose of 'isotope stratigraphy' but there are a number of problems that can preclude its routine use.

Molecular identification of fungi microfossils in a Neoproterozoic shale rock
We report the discovery of 715 to ca. 810 million–year–old fungal fossils through molecular characterization of vestigial chitin. Precambrian fossils of fungi are sparse, and the knowledge of their early evolution and the role they played in the ...

The geology of the Capiru Group, Curitiba Terrane, Southern Ribeira Belt (Brazil)
The Capiru Group is a Neoproterozoic metasedimentary unit that crops out in the Curitiba terrane, Southern Ribeira Belt, Brazil. A detailed geological mapping of this unit was performed during 2016 to 2020. Original interpretations and the new geological
