The Khesen Formation microfossils offer new clues about the appearance of the first animals
An article published in the journal “Geology” describes a research on microfossils in excellent state of conservation discovered in northern Mongolia that could help to understand the evolution from microbes to animals. A team of researchers led by the Yale University studied these embryo-like fossils discovered in what was called Khesen Formation dating to about 540 million years ago, during the Ediacaran period.
