Abstract: Because the informative Burgess Shale-type preservation is uncommon in the Ediacaran, mouldic Ediacara-type preservation provides insight into the early evolution of organisms like metazoans (including typical fronds), protists, and algae. Here, we report the Burgess… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rspb.2019.2370
Abstract: Recent investigations on neurological tissues preserved in Cambrian fossils have clarified the phylogenetic affinities and head segmentation in pivotal members of stem-group Euarthropoda. However, palaeoneuroanatomical features are often incomplete or described from single exceptional specimens,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/pala.70001
Abstract: Burgess‐Shale‐type (BST) faunas have proven critical for mapping the Cambrian assembly of animal‐dominated ecosystems, but have so far only been reported from fully subaqueous deposits. Here we integrate evidence from ichnofossils, sedimentary features, and small… read more here.

DOI: 10.1139/cjes-2021-0035
Abstract: The Selwyn basin and Mackenzie platform of northwestern Canada house an array of mineral deposits and prospects that are rich in silver, including Neoproterozoic red-bed or Kupferschiefer-type Cu and lower Paleozoic sedimentary exhalative (SEDEX) and… read more here.
