The stratigraphic distribution in Australian Precambrian rocks of columnar stromatolites, organosedimentary structures formed by blue-green algae, has been investigated. Their morphology is being studied according to methods developed in Russia. The discovery of successive different assemblages supports not only regional but also intercontinental stratigraphic correlations which are in agreement with available isotopic datings.
对澳大利亚前寒武纪岩石中的柱状叠层石(蓝绿藻形成的有机沉积构造)的地层分布进行了研究。根据俄罗斯开发的方法对其形态进行了研究。连续不同组合的发现不仅支持了区域地层对比,也支持了洲际地层对比,与现有的同位素测年结果一致。
