stromatolite

There's stromatolites down there -- the first living things to capture photosynthesis -- and it's the only place they still occur today .

The blue-green algae that form the stromatolites helped create our present atmosphere by breaking down carbon dioxide and excreting oxygen.

Stromatolites are formed by blue-green algae that excrete carbonate to form a dome-like structure.

Fossil stromatolites are regarded by some people as evidence of the same thing having gone on billions of years ago.

Rain water is leaching through the ground and the shells, dissolving out calcium carbonate and carrying to the stromatolites.

The researchers believe they could even contain 'stromatolites', as at Pilbara, which are formed by ancient microbes.

Some stromatolites date back nearly 4000 million years, making them the oldest known fossils.

Stromatolites were the first to exhale oxygen .

Stromatolites are the heroes in my story.

The oxygen exhaled by those stromatolites is what we all breathe today.

So this is an important site where we can look at the circumstances in which stromatolites actually occur.

the agglutinated stromatolites are mainly related with binding and trapping performed by prokaryotic and eukaryotic algae together;
