Rare earth element geochemistry of Australian Neoproterozoic carbonate: Constraints on the Neoproterozoic oxygenation events

Carbonate successions are principal geochemical archives of the extraordinary environmental changes that occurred during the Neoproterozoic Era. In this study, we present a stratigraphic record of carbonate rare earth element (REE) compositions from Neoproterozoic and Cambrian strata in central and southern Australia. The new REE results provide insight into the redox conditions of the Neoproterozoic-Cambrian ocean, the influence of glacial...
