Reply to comment by martin87i in Earth’s oldest evidence of life – Australian fossils dating to about 3.48 billion years ago – could provide hints of what scientists should look for on Mars by marketrent
The mounds, called stromatolites, are made from cyanobacteria, one of the first and most prolific lifeforms on Earth. They left behind extremely tiny grains from their bodies after death which became sedimentary rock after millions of years. These stromatolites survive today and can be dated w radioactive dating. http://ircamera.as.arizona.edu/NatSci102/NatSci102/text/extfirstlife.htm
