Taxonomic remark Unclear whether biotic or not; described as a Precambrian fossil yeast-like organism (fungus), but this interpretation is impossible according to Appel et al., 2003, whose conclusion is that "the objects (whether biological or not) are entirely post-tectonic and probably result from pre-Quaternary weathering".
