Disentangling palaeoecological and outcrop controls on MISS occurrence in c. 1 Ga fluvio‐lacustrine facies of the Diabaig Formation, Scotland

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The c. 1 Ga Diabaig Formation of north‐west Scotland preserves diverse lacustrine and fluvial facies and abundant microbial and non‐microbial surficial sedimentary features. 172.6 m of section was logged across seven localities to assess the distribution of microbially induced sedimentary structures (MISS) relative to lithofacies, substrate ...

A tale of two microbialites: Stromatolites and microbially induced sedimentary structures

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microbialites are biosedimentary structures built by microbial mats. Five microbialite groups are distinguished: stromatolites, thrombolites, dendrolites, leiloites and microbially induced sedimentary structures (MISS). This contribution discusses the two most abundant microbialite groups in marine settings, stromatolites and MISS.

Bed‐scale quantitative discrimination of hyperpycnites from intrabasinal turbidites—Results from a channelised slope system in the Upper Carboniferous Westward Ho! Formation, United Kingdom

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Features considered indicative of hyperpycnites and intrabasinal turbidites overlap. Outcrop study presented here suggests that the Westward Ho! Formation forms an 800 m high deepwater‐slope system dominated by hyperpycnites. Taking this unit, and other successions where hyperpycnites have been described, as having been deposited solely from ...

Sedimentology of silica granules and haematite in the 3.47 Ga Antarctic Creek Member, Mount Ada Basalt, Western Australia

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Paleoarchean Antarctic Creek Member of the Mount Ada Basalt, Eastern Pilbara Terrane, Western Australia, includes beds of jasper and white chert composed of sand‐sized silica granules that often contain or are mixed with silt‐sized particles of haematite.
