Statement

Metal abundances were analysed by ICP-MS and ICP-AES after acid digestion, using method ME-MS61 of ALS in Dublin, Ireland. Organic carbon was analysed by flash combustion in an elemental analyzer (EA-Isolink) coupled to a gas-source mass spectrometer (MAT253) via a Conflo IV. Details are provided in Stüeken et al. (in review) "Large Domal Stromatolites in the Paleoarchean Ocean at 3.47 Ga".
