The ‘classic stromatolite’ Cryptozoön is a keratose sponge‐microbial consortium
Abstract Animal evolution transformed microbial mat development. Canonically inferred negative effects include grazing, disturbance and competition for space. In contrast, ancient examples of cooperation between microbial mats and invertebrates have rarely been reported.

The astronomical pulse of global extinction events. [PDF]
The linkage between astronomical cycles and the periodicity of mass extinctions is reviewed and discussed. In particular, the apparent 26 million year cycle of global extinctions may be related to the motion of the solar system around the galaxy, especially perpendicular to the galactic plane.

Earlier, we considered the features of the redox changes in the near-bottom layer of water in the sedimentation basins that existed during the Late Riphean and Vendian in the eastern and northeastern (in modern coordinates) margins of the Baltic.

THE NEPSKY-1 IMPACT CRATER AND ITS FILL DEPOSITS ON THE BASEMENT ROOF OF THE SIBERIAN PLATFORM
In the Earth studies, discoveries and investigations of impact craters buried beneath thick sediments are sporadic so far and may still remain inefficient, unless geophysical surveys of the areas of interest are initiated. Such studies can provide useful

Background. Clarification of the structure of sedimentary formations located on the Siberian Platform by means of lithological and petrographic core studies has a theoretical and practical significance for the creation of geological models for oil and ...
