“…The more distal pyroclastic deposits in other regions as described above were likely associated with similar settings at different localities that still need to be found and mapped in detail. Similar processes were discussed for e.g., the Ventersdorp LIP lavas by van der Westhuizen (2006), Altermann and Lenhardt (2012) and Humbert et al (in revision b).…”

“…The morphogenetic sequence of millimeter-scale clumps, reticulate ridge and laminated cones, has also been used implicate the ancient presence of O 2 -generating cyanobacteria in the formation of Tumbiana microbialites (36)(37)(38). Similar features exist in the 2.7-Ga Sodium Group, South Africa (39). The presence of microbially induced sedimentary structures (MISS) further supports the notion that FMM that likely hosted cyanobacteria were widespread within Neoarchean alluvial, interfluve, and lacustrine environments (40).…”

“…This conundrum also relates to stromatolites in the Archean Fortescue Group (Australia) with one group of workers arguing the facies reflect a marine setting (Packer, 1990;Thorne and Trendall, 2001;Sakurai et al, 2005) whereas others interpret the same facies as lacustrine (Kriewaldt and Ryan, 1967;Walter, 1984;Buick, 1992;Blake et al, 2004;Walter and Allwood, 2005;Bolhar and Van Kranendonk, 2007;Awramik and Buchheim, 2009). Stromatolites have been recognized in distal shallow lacustrine systems of the Omdraaivlei Formation, Sodium Group of the 2.7 Ga Ventersdorp Supergroup (Kaapvaal craton; Altermann and Lenhardt, 2012).…”
