Abstract: Abstract Modern microbial mats rarely lithify or preserve their layering except under exceptional circumstances of elevated calcium carbonate (CaCO3) concentrations or reduced grazing/bioturbation pressures. Stromatolite (layered accretions formed by microbial activity) lithification and CaCO3 precipitation… read more here.
