Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study focus on modern hot spring laminated deposit for analogy of ancient marine deposits, BIF and stromatolite. Study locations are two hot springs in Sumatra Island, Indonesia and one hot spring in Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan. These hot spring deposits were analyzed by geochemical, sedimentological and microbiological methods. These results clear processes of micro-scale lamination in hot spring deposits.
