Abstract

Microbial structures in Neoproterozoic cap carbonates record the environmental processes present in the aftermath of global glaciation. The Rasthof Formation of northern Namibia is a unique carbonate depositional sequence that formed during post-glacial transgression and highstand following the Chuos glaciation. Carbon isotope profiles from four examined localities reveal that onlap was diachronous over post-glacial, syn-rift topography. The lower Rasthof Formation consists primarily of dark gray thinly (
