The oceans probably remained well-oxygenated for millions of years after the Palaeoproterozoic Lomagundi-Jatuli Event, according to high concentrations and isotope signatures of redox-sensitive metals in the 2-billion-year-old Zaonega Formation, Russia. The approximately 2,220-2,060 million years old Lomagundi-Jatuli Event was the longest positive carbon isotope excursion in Earth history and is traditionally interpreted to reflect an increased organic carbon burial and a transient rise in atmospheric O-2. However, it is widely held that O-2 levels collapsed for more than a billion years after this. Here we show that black shales postdating the Lomagundi-Jatuli Event from the approximately 2,000 million years old Zaonega Formation contain the highest... |
