Cyanobacteria(?) in iron banded formations of the Kursk magnetic anomaly

Fossilized cyanobacteria(?) represented by trichomes enclosed in common sheaths were detected in early Proterozoic iron banded formations of the Kursk magnetic anomaly (limonite–martite ores of the Lebedinsky mine and iron banded formations of the Korobkovskoye deposit). These fossils morphologicall...

Zusammenfassung:Fossilized cyanobacteria(?) represented by trichomes enclosed in common sheaths were detected in early Proterozoic iron banded formations of the Kursk magnetic anomaly (limonite–martite ores of the Lebedinsky mine and iron banded formations of the Korobkovskoye deposit). These fossils morphologically similar to current representatives of the genus Microcoleus were buried in situ.
